Summary

CVE-2026-0933 is a high-severity Improper Input Validation (CWE-20) vulnerability in Cloudflare Wrangler. Its CVSS base score is 7.7 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 30% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

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-2026-0933 is a command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) in the `wrangler pages deploy` command of Wrangler, a component of the Cloudflare Workers SDK. The issue arises because the `--commit-hash` parameter is passed directly to a shell command without proper validation or sanitization. Specifically, the commitHash variable derived from this CLI argument is interpolated into a shell command using template literals, such as `execSync('git show -s --format=%B ${commitHash}')`, allowing shell metacharacters to be interpreted and enabling arbitrary command execution on the system running Wrangler.

Exploitation requires an attacker to control the `--commit-hash` parameter, which is generally difficult outside of specific scenarios. The vulnerability primarily impacts CI/CD environments where `wrangler pages deploy` is used in automated pipelines and the parameter is populated from external, potentially untrusted sources, such as repository commits. A successful exploit allows the attacker to run any shell command, exfiltrate environment variables, or compromise the CI runner by installing backdoors or modifying build artifacts. The CVSS score is 9.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H), reflecting high impact with network accessibility and low privileges required.

Advisories recommend upgrading to mitigate the vulnerability: Wrangler v4 users should update to v4.59.1 or higher, v3 users to v3.114.17 or higher, and v2 users (end-of-life) should migrate to a supported major version. Additional details are available in the Cloudflare Workers SDK repository at https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk. The issue was disclosed responsibly by kny4hacker.

of `--commit-hash` to execute arbitrary commands on the system running Wrangler. Root causeThe commitHash variable, derived from user input via the --commit-hash CLI argument, is interpolated directly into a shell command using template literals (e.g., execSync(`git show -s --format=%B ${commitHash}`)). Shell metacharacters are interpreted by the shell, enabling command execution. ImpactThis vulnerability is generally hard to exploit, as it requires --commit-hash to be attacker controlled. The vulnerability primarily affects CI/CD environments where `wrangler pages deploy` is used in automated pipelines and the --commit-hash parameter is populated from external, potentially untrusted sources. An attacker could exploit this to: * Run any shell command. * Exfiltrate environment variables. * Compromise the CI runner to install backdoors or modify build artifacts. Credits Disclosed responsibly by kny4hacker. Mitigation * Wrangler v4 users are requested to upgrade to Wrangler v4.59.1 or higher. * Wrangler v3 users are requested to upgrade to Wrangler v3.114.17 or higher. * Users on Wrangler v2 (EOL) should upgrade to a supported major version.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing input validation through analysis or test cases.

SI-10 directly requires validity checks on information inputs, structurally preventing improper or missing validation.

Requiring documented development standards and tools can embed input-validation practices into the engineering process.

finds

Testing against a defined set of requirements and using code review plus vulnerability scanning forces validation of inputs and handling of unanticipated conditions, reducing the chance that malformed data will be accepted.

prevents

Secure-coding guidelines and mandatory security testing (including code scans) compel developers to validate and sanitize inputs at design and implementation time, lowering the incidence of malformed or malicious data reaching downstream components.

prevents

Mandating input controls that include integrity checks and input validation ensures that untrusted data is examined before use, blocking the root cause of many injection and malformed-data weaknesses.

prevents

Security-by-design principles explicitly call for data validation and sanitization at every layer, reducing the chance that malformed or malicious input will be processed without scrutiny.

prevents

Requiring language-specific secure coding standards, peer review, SAST and documented mitigation of common programming errors forces validation of all inputs before they are trusted.

none

Regular automated validation of system software and data content, combined with scanning of all inbound files, enforces input validation at the boundary before untrusted content is processed.
