DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Eigent is a multi-agent Workforce. A critical security vulnerability in the CI workflow (.github/workflows/ci.yml) allows arbitrary code execution from fork pull requests with repository write permissions. The vulnerable workflow uses pull_request_target trigger combined with checkout of untrusted PR code. An attacker can exploit this to steal credentials, post comments, push code, or create releases.

AnalysisAI

Eigent multi-agent workflow CI pipeline (ci.yml) uses pull_request_target with checkout of untrusted PR code, enabling arbitrary code execution with repository write permissions from fork PRs. PoC available, patch available.

Technical ContextAI

The GitHub Actions workflow uses pull_request_target trigger and checks out the PR's head code (CWE-94). Fork PRs run with the base repository's secrets and write permissions, allowing an attacker to steal credentials, push code, and create releases.

RemediationAI

Update the CI workflow. Never checkout untrusted PR code in pull_request_target workflows.
