Summary

CVE-2025-67511 is a critical-severity Command Injection (CWE-77) vulnerability in Aliasrobotics Cybersecurity Ai. Its CVSS base score is 9.6 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked in the top 20% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as AI Agent Protocols and Integrations; in the Supply Chain and Deployment risk domain.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-67511 is a command injection vulnerability (CWE-77) in the open-source Cybersecurity AI (CAI) framework, which supports building and deploying AI-powered offensive and defensive automation. Versions 0.5.9 and below are affected specifically in the run_ssh_command_with_credentials() function, accessible to AI agents. While password and command inputs are escaped to prevent shell injection, the username, host, and port parameters remain unescaped and thus injectable.

The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.6 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating network accessibility, low attack complexity, no required privileges, user interaction needed, changed scope, and high impacts across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Attackers can exploit it by tricking users or AI agents into supplying malicious values for the injectable fields, enabling arbitrary command execution on the host running CAI.

Published on 2025-12-11, the advisory notes no fix was available at that time. A related commit (https://github.com/aliasrobotics/cai/commit/09ccb6e0baccf56c40e6cb429c698750843a999c) addresses the issue, with further details in the GitHub security advisory (https://github.com/aliasrobotics/cai/security/advisories/GHSA-4c65-9gqf-4w8h) and a technical blog post (https://www.hacktivesecurity.com/blog/2025/12/10/cve-2025-67511-tricking-a-security-ai-agent-into-pwning-itself).

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover command-construction flaws before deployment.

Input validation directly stops construction of commands from untrusted data containing special elements.

Secure engineering principles include proper neutralization and safe command construction practices.

finds

Security testing in development catches command-injection vulnerabilities before release.

prevents

Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and command construction practices that directly prevent command injection.

prevents

Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection flaws including command injection.

prevents

Secure architecture principles reduce the attack surface but do not prescribe the specific neutralization techniques needed.

none

Environment separation limits the blast radius of an exploited command injection but does not prevent the flaw itself.
