Claude Code Command Validation Bypass Allows Arbitrary Code Execution

High severity. Affects @anthropic-ai/claude-code < 1.0.93. Upgrade to 1.0.93 or later.

CVE-2025-66032 / GHSA-xq4m-mc3c-vvg3 · severity: high · npm

Affected

  • @anthropic-ai/claude-code < 1.0.93 → fixed in 1.0.93

Details

Due to errors in parsing shell commands related to $IFS and short CLI flags, it was possible to bypass the Claude Code read-only validation and trigger arbitrary code execution. Reliably exploiting this requires the ability to add untrusted content into a Claude Code context window.

Users on standard Claude Code auto-update have received this fix already. Users performing manual updates are advised to update to the latest version.
