CVE-2026-54325 WRITEUP MEDIUM WRITEUP
earendil-works - Pi Loads Project-Local Extensions Without Approval
Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness. Pi before 0.79.0 loaded project-local configuration and resources from a repository's .pi directory without first asking the user to trust that repository. This included project-local extensions, which are executable TypeScript or JavaScript modules loaded into the Pi process. An attacker who controls a repository could place Pi-specific project resources in that repository. If a user then started Pi from that working tree, the project-local extension code could run with the same privileges as the local Pi process without the user having a convenient way to make a trust decision. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.79.0.
CVSS 4.4
CVE-2026-54328 WRITEUP HIGH WRITEUP
Pi: Predictable temporary extension install paths allow local privilege escalation on shared Linux hosts
Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness. From 0.74.0 until 0.78.1, Pi versions with temporary npm or git extension package installs used predictable paths under the operating system temporary directory. On Linux-based multi-user systems, a local attacker who can write to the shared temporary directory could prepare the expected package location before another user runs pi with a temporary extension package source. Pi could then load attacker-controlled extension code in the victim user's process. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.78.1.
CVSS 7.3
CVE-2026-54327 WRITEUP LOW WRITEUP
Pi 0.74.0 to < 0.78.1 - auth.json Credential Exposure Race Condition
Pi is a minimal terminal coding harness. From 0.74.0 until 0.78.1, Pi stored API keys and OAuth credentials in auth.json. A race condition in the file write path could briefly create or rewrite this file with permissions derived from the process umask before tightening the file to owner-only permissions. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.78.1.
