CVE-2026-35582: Emissary has an OS Command Injection via Unvalidated IN_FILE_ENDING / OUT_FILE_ENDING in Executrix
(updated )
Executrix.getCommand() constructs shell commands by substituting temporary file paths directly into a /bin/sh -c string with no escaping. The IN_FILE_ENDING and OUT_FILE_ENDING configuration keys flow into those paths unmodified. A place author who sets either key to a shell metacharacter sequence achieves arbitrary OS command execution in the JVM’s security context when the place processes any payload. No runtime privileges beyond place configuration authorship are required, and no API or network access is needed.
This is a framework-level defect — Executrix provides no escaping mechanism and no validation on file ending values. Downstream implementors have no safe way to use the API as designed.
