Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Zed is a multiplayer code editor. Prior to 0.219.4, Zed does not show with which parameters a tool is being invoked, when asking for allowance. Further it does not show after the tool was being invoked, which parameters were used. Thus, maybe unwanted or even malicious values could be used without the user having a chance to notice it. Patched in Zed Editor 0.219.4 which includes expandable tool call details.
AnalysisAI
Zed Editor versions prior to 0.219.4 fail to display tool invocation parameters during permission prompts or after execution, allowing attackers with high privileges to execute tools with malicious or unintended parameters without user awareness. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability. The issue is resolved in version 0.219.4, which adds expandable tool call details for transparency.
