Summary

SonarQube Server and Cloud is a static analysis solution for continuous code quality and security inspection. A command injection vulnerability exists in SonarQube GitHub Action in version 4.0.0 to before version 6.0.0 when workflows pass user-controlled input to the args parameter on Windows runners without proper validation. This vulnerability bypasses a previous security fix and allows arbitrary command execution, potentially leading to exposure of sensitive environment variables and compromise of the runner environment. The vulnerability has been fixed in version 6.0.0. Users should upgrade to this version or later.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could execute arbitrary commands in the runner environment, leading to exposure of sensitive data and compromise of the CI/CD system.

Recommendation

Update SonarQube GitHub Action to version 6.0.0 or later.
