CVE-2026-45136: claude-code-cache-fix vulnerable to local code execution via Python triple-quote injection in tools/quota-statusline.sh
(updated )
tools/quota-statusline.sh (introduced in v3.5.0) interpolates Claude Code’s hook stdin payload directly into a Python triple-quoted string literal. A ''' byte sequence in any user-controlled field of the payload closes the literal early and lets following bytes execute as Python in the user’s Claude Code process.
