Source: NVD(opens in a new tab)
Identifier: CVE-2025-54377
Published: July 23, 2025
Record updated: October 9, 2026

Known exploitation: Not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog at the last check.
EPSS: 1.1%

Summary

Roo Code, an AI-powered autonomous coding agent for editors, versions 3.23.18 and below, does not validate line breaks (\n) in its command input. This allows a bypass of the allow-list mechanism, since only the first line or token may be considered when commands are evaluated, so additional commands in subsequent lines can run.

Mitigation

Fixed in version 3.23.19.
