CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects CodeRAG versions prior to 1.3.1, where the application can execute attacker-controlled code due to improper validation of Gradle executable content when syncing dependencies. This flaw allows a malicious actor to exploit the system with the victim's operating privileges, potentially leading to data disclosure, modification, or denial of service. Organizations using CodeRAG should prioritize upgrading to version 1.3.1 to mitigate these risks.

Original NVD Description
CodeRAG is a lightweight semantic code search and distillation utility for AI coding agents. Prior to 1.3.1, the default agent-coderag sync flow in code_rag/entry/cli.py calls sync_dependencies for an indexed path, and code_rag/core/manager.py treats build.gradle or build.gradle.kts as sufficient to invoke _sync_gradle. _sync_gradle prefers a repository-controlled gradlew or gradlew.bat file and passes it directly to asyncio.create_subprocess_exec with the repository root as the working directory; validate_path in code_rag/core/utils.py constrains the directory location but does not validate the executable's content or integrity. A victim who indexes an attacker-controlled Gradle repository therefore executes attacker-supplied code with the victim's operating-system privileges, allowing disclosure, modification, persistence, or denial of service in the user environment. This issue is fixed in 1.3.1.
