DescriptionCVE.org

goose 1.37.0 executes arbitrary commands from recipe stdio extensions and retry.checks without security inspection. Attackers can distribute malicious recipes that execute shell commands as the user running goose, bypassing the recipe security scan which does not inspect extensions or retry configurations.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary command execution in goose v1.37.0 allows an attacker to embed shell commands inside recipe stdio extension definitions and retry.check fields that are silently executed under the victim user's OS privileges. The built-in recipe security scanner does not inspect these fields, providing a false safety guarantee and a clear bypass path. …

Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) is broadly appropriate: the attack is network-reachable via recipe distribution, low-complexity once a recipe is loaded, and yields full command execution. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade goose to v1.49.0 or later, which contains patches to the recipe parser in crates/goose/src/recipe/mod.rs and the extension manager in crates/goose/src/agents/extension_manager.rs as shown in the GitHub repository at v1.49.0 tag. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
