Title
GitHub CLI `gh codespace jupyter` could allow remote code execution when connecting to a malicious Codespace
Summary
GitHub CLI (gh) is GitHub’s official command line tool. From 2.10.0 through 2.95.0, connecting to a malicious Codespace with gh codespace jupyter can allow command execution because the command opens a JupyterLab URL supplied by a process inside the Codespace without validating that it is a loopback HTTP or HTTPS address, allowing a crafted vscode:// or vscode-insiders:// URL to be handed to VS Code. This issue is fixed in version 2.96.0.
Severity
4.4 (Medium)
CWE
- CWE-829 - Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere
