CVE-2026-51990
AI description
CVE-2026-51990 is a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability identified in Sogou Input Method for Windows, a widely used typing software in China. This flaw enables remote attackers to install malicious programs on a user's system through a single click. The exploit chain leverages an unvalidated protocol parameter, an outdated Chromium browser engine that operates without a sandbox, and disabled web security controls within the application. Security researchers discovered that threat actors, specifically the UNC3569 group, actively exploited this vulnerability in the wild to deploy the GRAYRABBIT backdoor. The attack typically begins when a user clicks a specially crafted web link, which then triggers the vulnerability within Sogou Input Method to execute malicious code. Tencent, the developer of Sogou Input Method, addressed this issue by releasing an automatic software patch in April 2026.
