Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in RooCodeInc Roo-Code up to 3.23.18. This issue affects some unknown processing. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a command injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-77.

Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Roo Code is an AI-powered autonomous coding agent that lives in users' editors. In versions 3.23.18 and below, RooCode does not validate line breaks (\n) in its command input, allowing potential bypass of the allow-list mechanism. The project appears to lack parsing or validation logic to prevent multi-line command injection. When commands are evaluated for execution, only the first line or token may be considered, enabling attackers to smuggle additional commands in subsequent lines. This is fixed in version 3.23.19.
