Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
An arbitrary file access vulnerability in Mistral Vibe allows an attacker to bypass workspace restrictions through commands classified as unconditionally allowed. Missing path validation for these commands enables access to files outside the active workspace without user approval.
AnalysisAI
Arbitrary file access in Mistral Vibe, Mistral AI's agentic coding assistant, lets an attacker read (and potentially modify) files outside the intended workspace by abusing commands the agent treats as unconditionally allowed. Because these allowlisted commands skip path validation, the agent executes them against arbitrary filesystem paths without prompting for user approval, breaking the workspace sandbox boundary. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires that the victim is running Mistral Vibe and that the agent is induced to execute one of the commands classified as 'unconditionally allowed' - these are the exact commands that skip path validation; operations gated by normal approval or path checks are not affected. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The assigned CVSS 4.0 base score is 10.0 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N with VC/VI/VA:H and subsequent-system SC/SI/SA all High), but several signals warrant scrutiny. … 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 | No vendor-released patch version is identified at time of analysis in the provided data; consult the HiddenLayer advisory (https://www.hiddenlayer.com/sai-security-advisory/2026-09-mistral-vibe6) and Mistral AI for the fixed release and upgrade as soon as one is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all Mistral Vibe deployments across development teams and immediately take the service offline; notify all affected users of the critical risk. …
