CVE-2026-110102 Details
Description
Powerlevel10k through 1.20.0 contains an insecure download vulnerability in the gitstatus/install script that disables TLS certificate verification with curl -k and skips integrity checks when no SHA-256 utility exists. Network-positioned attackers can intercept the github.com mirror request and substitute a malicious archive, which runs as the gitstatusd daemon under the user's account on every prompt.
A vulnerability exists in Powerlevel10k versions through 1.20.0 within the gitstatus installation script. This issue arises because the script disables TLS certificate verification when using curl, allowing network-positioned attackers to intercept and manipulate download requests. Additionally, the script skips integrity checks if no SHA-256 utility is available, leading to potential execution of malicious code.
