📝 Bug Description
The sdd-verify skill reads test/build command strings directly from repository files (openspec/config.yaml, package.json scripts, Makefile targets) and executes them verbatim. A malicious or compromised repository can supply a crafted command string that executes arbitrary code in the agent's shell context with the agent's permissions.
🔄 Steps to Reproduce
- Create a repository with an
openspec/config.yaml containing a malicious rules.verify.test_command
- Run the
sdd-verify skill against that repository
- The skill reads and executes the command string from the config file
✅ Expected Behavior
The skill should only execute a fixed allowlist of trusted, built-in commands per detected language (e.g. npm test, pytest, go test ./...) and never execute command strings sourced from repository files.
❌ Actual Behavior
The skill executes whatever string is defined in:
openspec/config.yaml → rules.verify.test_command / rules.verify.build_command
package.json → scripts.test / scripts.build
Makefile → make test / make build
This allows arbitrary command injection via repo-controlled files.
🖥️ Environment
- Operating System: Windows
- Agent / Client: Claude Code
- Shell: bash
📋 Relevant Logs
N/A — design-level vulnerability, not a runtime crash.
💡 Additional Context
Recommended fix: Replace dynamic command detection with a fixed allowlist of safe commands per language, with a fallback that asks the orchestrator rather than executing repo-provided values. Add an explicit rule: NEVER execute command strings sourced from repository files (including openspec/config.yaml, package.json, Makefile, or similar).
