An OS command injection vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks Checkov by Prisma® Cloud enables a local user to execute arbitrary commands in the processes running Checkov.
AnalysisAI
OS command injection in Palo Alto Networks Checkov by Prisma Cloud allows a local low-privileged user to execute arbitrary commands within the Checkov scanning process. Because Checkov is routinely deployed inside CI/CD pipelines holding cloud credentials and infrastructure deployment permissions, successful exploitation can propagate beyond the scanning host to affect subsequent systems at high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to have local file-system write access to a directory that Checkov scans, and a user or automated process must subsequently run Checkov against that location (UI:P - passive interaction). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P) confines exploitation to local access with passive user interaction - someone must run Checkov against attacker-controlled IaC content. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Consult and apply the fix referenced in the Palo Alto Networks advisory at https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/CVE-2026-0302; the exact patched version is not confirmed from the provided data and must be verified there. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
