Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
An arbitrary code execution vulnerability in Mistral Vibe allows an attacker to bypass command permission checks using environment variable assignments preceding allowlisted commands. These assignments are excluded from inspection, enabling attacker-controlled environment variables to cause arbitrary code execution without user approval.
AnalysisAI
Arbitrary code execution in Mistral Vibe (mistralai:mistral-vibe) lets an attacker defeat the agent's command-approval allowlist by prefixing an allowlisted command with shell environment-variable assignments (e.g. FOO=bar allowedcmd). …
