This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by distributing malicious recipes that leverage insecure recipe standard input/output (stdio) extensions and retry checks. This bypasses the existing security scan, enabling the execution of shell commands with the privileges of the user running goose.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-10 15:23:18 UTC
goose 1.37.0 executes arbitrary commands from recipe stdio extensions and retry.checks without security inspection. Attackers can distribute malicious recipes that execute shell commands as the user running goose, bypassing the recipe security scan which does not inspect extensions or retry configurations.
