An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-19593 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenAI Codex Desktop. 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-2026-19593/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19593/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-19593","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19593/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-19593","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hcf6-9q9g-xx3c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"OpenAI Codex Desktop","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attacker-controlled Git config in a workspace triggers arbitrary code execution outside the sandbox, allowing file access and modification.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"OAI","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-15","name":"External Control of System or Configuration Setting"}],"description":"OpenAI Codex Desktop for Windows and macOS automatically inspected Git metadata and working-tree status when a user opened a workspace. If the workspace contains a repository with preserved attacker-controlled .git/config, the attr.tree setting and a configured clean or process filter can cause Git to run an attacker-controlled program. The program runs outside Codex's command sandbox with the signed-in user's privileges, without a workspace-trust prompt, command approval, or interaction with a model. The attacker can read, modify, or delete files and access credentials available to that user. Exploitation requires Git to be available on PATH and the user to open the attacker-prepared repository with its local Git configuration intact. An ordinary Git clone does not copy the source repository's .git/config and is not sufficient by itself.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Command injection in Codex Desktop","id":"CVE-2026-19593","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in Snowflake Python APIs","id":"CVE-2026-19594"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in Codex CLI","id":"CVE-2026-19592"},"products":["Codex Desktop","Codex Desktop (Microsoft Store package)"],"published":"2026-09-01","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["OpenAI"]},"summary":"Attacker-controlled Git config in a workspace triggers arbitrary code execution outside the sandbox, allowing file access and modification.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19593/"}
