CVE-2026-30305 Details
Description
Syntx's command auto-approval module contains a critical OS command injection vulnerability that renders its whitelist security mechanism completely ineffective. The system relies on fragile regular expressions to parse command structures; while it attempts to intercept dangerous operations, it fails to account for standard Shell command substitution syntax (specifically $(...)and backticks ...). An attacker can construct a command such as git log --grep="$(malicious_command)", forcing Syntx to misidentify it as a safe git operation and automatically approve it. The underlying Shell prioritizes the execution of the malicious code injected within the arguments, resulting in Remote Code Execution without any user interaction.
A critical OS command injection vulnerability has been identified in Syntx's command auto-approval module, affecting versions through 2.5.0. This vulnerability undermines the application's whitelist security mechanism by allowing attackers to inject malicious commands that are misidentified as safe. The issue arises because the command validation logic relies on fragile regular expressions that fail to properly handle standard Shell command substitution syntax, such as $(...) and backticks. As a result, injected commands can be executed by the underlying Shell, leading to remote code execution without any user interaction.
