Summary

Roo-Code through 3.54.0 contains an auto-approve bypass vulnerability that allows attackers to execute denied shell commands by exploiting a word-boundary mismatch in comment handling between the approval gate's shell parser and bash. Attackers can craft a command string with an allowlisted word immediately followed by a hash character, separator, and denied command to pass the approval gate while bash executes the denied command with the agent's auto-execute privileges on the developer's machine.

Risk Assessment

The risk is the potential for unauthorized command execution on the developer's machine, potentially leading to system compromise, data theft, or malware installation.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update Roo-Code to the latest version once a patch is available and review auto-approval settings to reduce risk.
