AI Threat Summary
CVE-2026-111079 is a high-severity vulnerability with a CVSS score of 7.4 affecting the target software. Threat hunters should monitor for exploit attempts and apply vendor patches immediately.
Description
A flaw was found in Goose. When the terminal integration feature is enabled, the application captures shell command history and sends it verbatim without sanitization to configured Large Language Model (LLM) provider endpoints during queries. If a user enters sensitive data—such as API tokens, passwords, or environment variables containing secrets—in the terminal, this unredacted information is transmitted across trust boundaries. This can lead to sensitive information disclosure, exposing confidential credentials to external service providers and logs.
