When a user clones and opens the repository in CodeWhale, the AI model gains access to exec_shell and task_shell tools, enabling execution of arbitrary shell commands on the victim's machine without explicit user consent.","published":"2026-08-18T16:18:23.057","modified":"2026-08-18T16:18:23.057","cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/Hmbown/CodeWhale/commit/43563356b98c6b993085554da82e77370160a31c","label":"Hmbown/CodeWhale@4356335"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Hmbown/CodeWhale/commit/43563356b98c6b993085554da82e77370160a31c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Hmbown/CodeWhale/security/advisories/GHSA-gx45-xrj5-g6c4"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/codewhale-before-remote-code-execution-via-allow-shell"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","NVD","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-18T16:18:23.057"}}
