DescriptionGitHub Advisory
orval generates type-safe JS clients (TypeScript) from any valid OpenAPI v3 or Swagger v2 specification. Prior to 7.18.0, the MCP server generation logic relies on string manipulation that incorporates the summary field from the OpenAPI specification without proper validation or escaping. This allows an attacker to "break out" of the string literal and inject arbitrary code. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.18.0.
AnalysisAI
orval (TypeScript API client generator) before 7.18.0 has code injection via OpenAPI specification summary fields in MCP server generation. Malicious API specs can inject arbitrary code into generated TypeScript. PoC available, patch available.
Technical ContextAI
When generating MCP server code, the summary field from the OpenAPI specification is incorporated into string literals using simple string concatenation (CWE-77). An attacker who controls the OpenAPI spec can break out of the string and inject arbitrary TypeScript/JavaScript code.
RemediationAI
Update to orval 7.18.0 or later. Review generated code for anomalies.
