What is CVE-2026-48732?
CVE-2026-48732 is a high-severity command injection vulnerability in warpdotdev warp, published on 24 Jun 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
Warp is an agentic development environment. From 0.2023.03.21.08.02.stable_00 until 0.2026.05.06.15.42.stable_01, Warp contains a command injection issue in the legacy SSH background command path. Warp used the remote working directory reported by the session when building helper commands for SSH-backed metadata collection. A remote host, repository, or directory name controlled by an attacker could cause that helper command to execute additional shell syntax on the remote host as the victim's authenticated SSH account. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.2026.05.06.15.42.stable_01.
Weakness: CWE-78
