CVE-2026-59865
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
Kiota is an OpenAPI based HTTP Client code generator. Prior to 1.29.1 and 1.32.5, kiota info read x-ms-kiota-info.languagesInformation.<language>.dependencyInstallCommand plus dependency name and version values from an OpenAPI description and presented the spec-supplied command as Kiota's recommended install command, allowing an attacker-controlled or compromised description to cause command injection when the suggested command was run manually or through the Kiota VS Code extension's kiota info –json dependency-install flow. This issue is fixed in version 1.29.1 and 1.32.5.
