CVE-2026-102437: esengine DeepSeek-Reasonix OS command injection in git diff filter

CVE-2026-102437 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.8 · Published 2026-09-29

DeepSeek-Reasonix is an AI coding agent desktop application. A local attacker who controls repository files (.gitattributes and .git/config) can inject arbitrary OS commands that execute when the workspace-changes diff viewer processes the repository, potentially leading to complete system compromise if the application runs with user privileges.

Technologies: Esengine DeepSeek-Reasonix. Vendors: Esengine.

Technical details

The vulnerability is an OS command injection in the internal/gitcmd component triggered during git diff filter invocation (clean/smudge filters). A local attacker with write access to repository content can craft malicious .gitattributes and .git/config files to inject shell metacharacters into filter commands. The attack requires local access and user interaction (opening the diff viewer), but results in arbitrary command execution in the application's security context.
