Summary

CVE-2026-55107 is a critical-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 10.0 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked in the top 45% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-6 (Least Privilege) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Kobako is a Ruby gem that embeds a Wasm-isolated mruby interpreter inside applications, allowing execution of untrusted Ruby scripts (LLM-generated code, user formulas, student submissions, third-party plugins) in-process without giving them access to host memory, files, network, or credentials. From…

more

version 0.1.0 to before version 0.9.1, a guest mruby script running inside the Kobako sandbox can execute arbitrary Ruby in the host process, fully escaping the sandbox. This issue has been patched in version 0.9.1.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Enforces authorization checks on the code or classes ultimately invoked, blocking unauthorized selections even if reflection is used.

Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.

Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.

Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

ID.RA-01 partial match
prevents

Vulnerability identification processes can discover unsafe reflection during code review or scanning.

PR.PS-05 partial match
prevents

Preventing execution of unauthorized code can block exploitation of unsafe reflection at runtime.

PR.DS-10 none match
prevents

PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.
