It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-68433 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: zed-industries zed. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68433/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68433/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-68433","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68433/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-68433","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cv6g-cmxc-vw8j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Zed code editor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary shell commands on the host system by tricking users into opening a malicious project in the Zed IDE.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"zed","vendor":"zed"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"Zed, a code editor, has an aribtrary code execution vulnerability in versions prior to 0.218.2-pre. The Zed IDE loads Model Context Protocol (MCP) configurations from the `settings.json` file located within a project’s `.zed` subdirectory. A malicious MCP configuration can contain arbitrary shell commands that run on the host system with the privileges of the user running the IDE. This can be triggered automatically without any user interaction besides opening the project in the IDE. Version 0.218.2-pre fixes the issue by implementing worktree trust mechanism. As a workaround, users should carefully review the contents of project settings files (`./zed/settings.json`) before opening new projects in Zed.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Zed IDE MCP Context Server Configuration Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2025-68433","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"opensourcepos has Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability that leads to Unauthorized Administrator Creation","id":"CVE-2025-68434"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Zed IDE LSP Binary Configuration Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2025-68432"},"products":["zed"],"published":"2025-12-17","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Zed Extension Sandbox Escape via Tar Symlink Following","id":"CVE-2026-27976","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-25"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Zed: Remote Command Injection via Unquoted Environment Variable Keys (SSH / WSL Remote)","id":"CVE-2026-44461","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-28"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Zed: Allowlist Bypass via Environment Variable Injection in Terminal Tool Permissions","id":"CVE-2026-44463","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-28"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Zed: Zed IDE Arbitrary Code Execution via untrusted repository with poisoned .git/config","id":"CVE-2026-44465","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-28"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Zed: Allowlist Bypass via Bash Arithmetic Expansion in Terminal Tool Permissions","id":"CVE-2026-44466","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Zed IDE LSP Binary Configuration Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2025-68432","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-17"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-12-18","vendors":["zed-industries"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary shell commands on the host system by tricking users into opening a malicious project in the Zed IDE.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68433/"}
