Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Meshtastic is an open source mesh networking solution. The main_matrix.yml GitHub Action is triggered by the pull_request_target event, which has extensive permissions, and can be initiated by an attacker who forked the repository and created a pull request. In the shell code execution part, user-controlled input is interpolated unsafely into the code. If this were to be exploited, attackers could inject unauthorized code into the repository. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.6.
Analysis
Meshtastic is an open source mesh networking solution.

This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.6.
Technical ContextAI
Command injection allows an attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands on the host system through a vulnerable application that passes user input to system shells. This vulnerability is classified as OS Command Injection (CWE-78).
RemediationAI
Avoid passing user input to system commands. Use language-specific APIs instead of shell commands. If unavoidable, use strict input validation and escaping.
