## What is CVE-2026-31225?

CVE-2026-31225 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in n/a, published on 12 May 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

The superduper project thru v0.10.0 contains a critical remote code execution vulnerability in its query parsing component. The _parse_op_part() function in query.py uses the unsafe eval() function to dynamically evaluate user-supplied query operands without proper sanitization or restriction. Although the function attempts to limit the execution context by providing a restricted global namespace, it does not block access to dangerous built-in functions. A remote attacker can exploit this by submitting a specially crafted query string containing Python code that imports modules (e.g., os) and executes arbitrary system commands, leading to complete compromise of the server.

Weakness: CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code)

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-31225 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-31225 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in n/a, published on 12 May 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-31225 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected packages and fixed versions:
- superduper-framework (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.10.0; no fix listed
- superduper-framework (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.10.0; no fix listed
- superduper-framework (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.10.0; no fix listed

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
