Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Anthropic claude-code up to 2.0.71. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown code block. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-78.

This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. Prior to version 2.0.72, due to an error in command parsing, it was possible to bypass the Claude Code confirmation prompt to trigger execution of untrusted commands through the find command. Reliably exploiting this required the ability to add untrusted content into a Claude Code context window. This issue has been patched in version 2.0.72.
