CVE-2026-95168 Details
Description
An issue in nvbn thefuck v.3.32 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code via the get_rules_import_paths in thefuck/corrector.py and Rule.from_path in thefuck/types.py
A vulnerability in nvbn thefuck version 3.32 allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code. This issue arises because the 'get_rules_import_paths' function in 'thefuck/corrector.py' scans all entries in 'sys.path' for 'thefuck_contrib_*' packages. It then yields the 'rules/' directories of these packages. The 'Rule.from_path' method in 'thefuck/types.py' executes each rule module before any enable-gating settings are applied. As a result, any writable 'sys.path' entry can lead to unauthorized code execution during thefuck command invocations.
To address this vulnerability, the 'load_source' function should be deferred until after a rule's 'is_enabled' check. Alternatively, the discovery of contrib packages could be restricted to explicitly configured paths, rather than scanning the entire 'sys.path'.
