Description
CVE-2026-51858 is a critical vulnerability in camel-ai camel versions 0.2.91a1, 0.2.91a2, and 0.2.91a3. The issue arises from TerminalToolkit.shell_exec allowing shell command execution driven by prompts without any approval boundary, enabling remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands without user interaction or privileges.
