DescriptionNVD

gh is GitHub’s official command line tool. From 1.6.0 to before 2.92.0, a security vulnerability has been identified in GitHub CLI that could allow terminal escape sequence injection when users view GitHub Actions workflow logs using gh run view --log or gh run view --log-failed. The vulnerability stems from the way GitHub CLI handles raw Actions log output. The gh run view --log and gh run view --log-failed commands stream workflow log lines to stdout or the configured pager without sanitizing terminal control sequences. An attacker who can influence GitHub Actions log content, for example via a PR triggered workflow, can embed escape sequences that are replayed in the user's terminal when they inspect the run. Depending on the victim's terminal emulator, injected sequences could change the window title, manipulate on screen content, or in some terminal emulators (such as screen) potentially execute arbitrary commands. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.92.0.

AnalysisAI

Terminal escape sequence injection in GitHub CLI 1.6.0 through 2.91.x allows authenticated attackers with pull request creation rights to inject malicious terminal control sequences into Actions workflow logs. When victims execute 'gh run view --log' or 'gh run view --log-failed' to inspect workflow runs, unsanitized escape sequences replay in their terminal, enabling window title manipulation, on-screen content alteration, or arbitrary command execution in vulnerable emulators like GNU screen. …
