High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-59862

Kiota is an OpenAPI based HTTP Client code generator. Prior to 1.32.0, Kiota's Python generator let attacker-controlled enum value descriptions from x-ms-enum.values[].description flow through KiotaBuilder.SetEnumOptions into Documentation.DescriptionTemplate and PythonConventionService.RemoveInvalidDescriptionCharacters without newline sanitization, allowing generated inline comments to split and execute attacker-controlled Python code at module scope when generated modules were imported. This issue is fixed in version 1.32.0.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can take the service offline.
Weakness
The application interprets attacker-supplied code, which then runs with its privileges.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
