A malicious or compromised repository can trigger code execution when a user runs the codex command inside it, because Codex automatically loads project-local .env and .codex/config.toml files, including malicious MCP (Model Context Protocol) configuration, without user confirmation. Attackers can embed arbitrary commands that execute immediately.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-61260","publishedAt":"2026-04-14T15:16:24.487Z","cveId":"CVE-2025-61260","cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"high","attackType":["other"],"issueType":"vulnerability","affectedPackages":["@openai/codex@<= 0.23.0"],"affectedPackageNames":["@openai/codex"],"affectedPackageRefs":["npm:@openai/codex"],"affectedVendors":["OpenAI"],"affectedVendorsRaw":["OpenAI Codex CLI"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-5-5","classifierPromptVersion":"v4","summaryPromptVersion":"v2","headline":"OpenAI Codex CLI code execution through malicious MCP configuration files","headlinePromptVersion":"h1","cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":"unknown","epssScore":0.06583,"epssCheckedAt":"2026-10-15T12:09:12.123Z","kevDateAdded":null,"advisoryAliases":["GHSA-xrxf-jgv3-qmrm"],"affectedPackagesSource":"ghsa","affectedPackagesCheckedAt":"2026-10-10T03:49:30.327Z","patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-04-14T15:16:24.487Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"trivial","impactType":["confidentiality","integrity"],"aiComponentTargeted":"plugin","llmSpecific":true,"classifierConfidence":0.93,"researchCategory":null,"atlasIds":null}}
