Description
nanobot is a personal AI assistant. Prior to version 0.1.6, an indirect prompt injection vulnerability exists in the email channel processing module (`nanobot/channels/email.py`), allowing a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary LLM instructions (and subsequently, system tools) without any interaction from the bot owner. By sending an email containing malicious prompts to the bot's monitored email address, the bot automatically polls, ingests, and processes the email content as highly trusted input, fully bypassing channel isolation and resulting in a stealthy, zero-click attack. Version 0.1.6 patches the issue.
Analysis
Remote code execution in nanobot personal AI assistant (versions prior to 0.1.6) allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary LLM instructions and system tools via malicious email content. The vulnerability exploits the email channel processing module's lack of input validation, enabling zero-click, indirect prompt injection attacks without bot owner interaction. …

Remediation
Within 24 hours: Identify all nanobot deployments running versions prior to 0.1.6 and isolate affected instances from production email flows; document current version inventory. Within 7 days: Disable the email channel processing module on all vulnerable instances pending vendor patch release; implement email content filtering to block known malicious injection patterns. …
