Executive Summary

CVE-2026-19284 is a command injection vulnerability in the MauricioMilano coder-api up to version 1.1.0. It affects the createProject function in src/core/projects.ts, allowing local attackers to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands through manipulated Git clone parameters like branch, depth, or URL.

Detection Guidance

Check for suspicious Git clone operations in logs, especially those using the Projects Endpoint. Look for unusual branch, depth, or URL parameters in requests to POST /projects or MCP create-project. Monitor for unexpected file creation in temporary directories or system-wide locations.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows attackers with local access to execute arbitrary commands on the system running the coder-api server. This could lead to unauthorized file access, data theft, or system compromise depending on the server's privileges.

Mitigation Strategies

Disable the Projects Endpoint if possible. Update to a patched version replacing child_process.exec with safer alternatives like spawn or execFile. Implement strict input validation for Git parameters using allowlists. Ensure sandboxing is enforced and isolate the API from external services.
