Technical details
A command injection vulnerability exists in OpenHuman through version 0.54.0 due to two flaws in 'src/openhuman/security/policy.rs'. First, the 'is_args_safe()' function fails to block the 'find' command flags '-execdir' and '-okdir', which function identically to the blocked '-exec' and '-ok' flags. Second, 'skip_env_assignments()' strips inline environment variables before validation, allowing an attacker to use hooks like 'GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF' to execute arbitrary code while appearing as a benign 'git' command. An attacker can exploit this via indirect prompt injection (e.g., a malicious email or web page) to achieve remote code execution with the privileges of the desktop user. The issue is fixed in version 0.56.0.
