Argument-injection command execution in Mintplex Labs AnythingLLM before 1.13.0 lets an attacker who can chat with an agent turn ripgrep into a script executor: the filesystem-search-files skill forwards an LLM-controlled pattern as a positional argument without a '--' separator, so a pattern like '--pre=/bin/sh' makes ripgrep run /bin/sh on every file it walks. Combined with the sibling filesystem-write-text-file skill to stage an attacker-controlled script, this yields arbitrary command execution inside the server container, which is exploitable out-of-the-box because the filesystem plugin ships enabled by default in the official Docker image. SSVC rates technical impact as total; a proof-of-concept exists but there is no public exploit weaponization and EPSS is low (0.05%).
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
Command injection in AnythingLLM prior to 1.13.0 allows attackers chatting with an agent to execute arbitrary commands inside the server container by abusing the filesystem-search-files skill. The LLM-controlled pattern parameter is passed to ripgrep without a '--' end-of-options separator, letting a crafted pattern like '--pre=/bin/sh' coerce ripgrep into executing files as shell scripts. The default official Docker image ships with the filesystem plugin enabled, making typical deployments exploitable; no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionNVD
AnythingLLM is an application that turns pieces of content into context that any LLM can use as references during chatting. Prior to 1.13.0, the filesystem-search-files agent skill passes its LLM-controlled pattern parameter to ripgrep as a positional argument without a -- end-of-options separator. ripgrep parses any argument that starts with - as an option, so a pattern of --pre=/bin/sh turns ripgrep into a script executor: it runs /bin/sh <file> for every file it walks. An attacker who can chat with an agent on a deployment with the filesystem plugin enabled (the default in the official Docker image) can use this, together with the sibling filesystem-write-text-file skill, to run arbitrary commands inside the AnythingLLM server container. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.13.0.
Executive ViewAI
AnythingLLM versions before 1.13.0 contain a remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2026-48116, CVSS 8.8) where publicly available exploit code exists, allowing attackers with chat access to execute arbitrary commands within the application server. This vulnerability affects deployments using the default Docker image configuration, where the vulnerable filesystem plugins ship enabled out-of-the-box. Successful exploitation would grant attackers full control over the AnythingLLM container, potentially compromising sensitive data processed by the application and enabling lateral movement within the network.
Within 24 hours, identify all AnythingLLM instances in production and determine which versions are running, prioritizing any deployments using official Docker images with default configurations. Within 7 days, upgrade all affected instances to AnythingLLM 1.13.0 or later, or immediately disable the filesystem-search-files and filesystem-write-text-file plugins if upgrade cannot be completed immediately. Within 30 days, conduct a security audit of all AnythingLLM deployments to ensure the filesystem plugins are explicitly configured with appropriate access restrictions and validate no unauthorized commands were executed during the exposure window.
Apply vendor patch: upgrade to AnythingLLM 1.13.0 or later. As interim mitigation, disable the filesystem-search-files and filesystem-write-text-file plugins in AnythingLLM configuration.
