What is CVE-2026-48703?

CVE-2026-48703 is a high-severity command injection vulnerability in warpdotdev warp, published on 24 Jun 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

Warp is an agentic development environment. From 0.2025.04.09.08.11.stable_00 until 0.2026.05.06.15.42.stable_01, Warp contains a command execution policy bypass in Agent code search tools. The affected Grep and FileGlob actions are authorized as read/search operations, but their implementations build shell command strings from Agent-controlled inputs (search text, paths, glob patterns) and execute them in the active terminal session. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.2026.05.06.15.42.stable_01.
