FKIE_CVE-2026-44220

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-05-12 20:16 - Updated: 2026-05-13 17:02
Severity
3.2 (Low) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N
Summary
ciguard is a static security auditor for CI/CD pipelines. From 0.8.0 to 0.8.1 , the discover_pipeline_files() function in src/ciguard/discovery.py walks a directory tree following symlinks, with cycle protection via tracking visited resolved paths. An attacker who can plant a symlink in a directory the user (or AI agent) scans can cause discovery to walk into the symlink target and return paths to pipeline-shaped files outside the requested root. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.2.
