CVE-2026-10279: OS Command Injection in hiraishikentaro wezterm-mcp
CVE-2026-10279 is an OS command injection vulnerability in hiraishikentaro wezterm-mcp version 0.1.0. It occurs due to improper handling of the argument request.params.arguments.pane_id in the src/wezterm_executor.ts file, specifically in the switch_pane/write_to_specific_pane component. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction. The exploit code is publicly available, but there is no vendor response or patch at this time.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in wezterm-mcp 0.1.0 arises from an OS command injection flaw in an unknown function within src/wezterm_executor.ts related to switching or writing to a specific pane. Manipulating the pane_id argument allows an attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands remotely. The issue was responsibly disclosed early to the project, but no fix or official remediation has been provided. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3, reflecting medium severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the affected system with limited privileges. This can lead to unauthorized command execution, potentially compromising system integrity or confidentiality depending on the environment. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation in the wild, but public exploit code exists.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation is currently available from the vendor. Users should monitor the vendor’s communications for updates. Until a fix is released, consider restricting network access to the vulnerable component and applying compensating controls to limit exposure. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
