Prior to 1.8.2, `joker --lint <file>` walks upward from the linted file to locate a `.jokerd/` directory and executes matching `linter.*` files before linting. Those files contain executable Joker/Clojure code, so linting a file inside an untrusted repository can execute repository-supplied code with the linter user's privileges. Editor integrations and CI jobs that automatically lint checked-out source can trigger this behavior. The patch stops executing project-local linter customizations and loads executable customization only from the user's home directory. This issue is fixed in version 1.8.2.","score":7.8,"severity":"high","published":"2026-10-28T13:07:35.230Z","modified":"2026-10-28T16:07:17.268Z","withdrawn":false,"knownExploited":false,"affected":[],"products":[{"vendor":"candid82","name":"joker","platforms":[],"versions":[{"version":"< 1.8.2","status":"affected"}],"cpes":[],"source":"GitHub_M","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-59172"}],"remediation":[],"references":["https://github.com/candid82/joker/security/advisories/GHSA-m835-3cm9-rggg","https://github.com/candid82/joker/commit/f207521ef8abc22f30740591c3de5062c1aa628c","https://github.com/candid82/joker/tree/v1.8.2"],"sources":[{"name":"CVE","id":"CVE-2026-59172","modified":"2026-10-28T16:07:17.268Z","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-59172"}],"assessments":[{"source":"GitHub_M","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8}],"sourceAffected":[],"observedAt":"2026-10-29T14:40:50.243Z","kev":{"status":"not-listed","checkedAt":"2026-10-31T16:20:31.233Z"},"coverage":[{"source":"NVD","status":"no-result","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.923Z","attemptedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.923Z"},{"source":"GHSA","status":"available","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.694Z","attemptedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.694Z"},{"source":"EUVD","status":"available","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.541Z","attemptedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.541Z"},{"source":"EPSS","status":"no-result","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.824Z","attemptedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.824Z"}],"evidence":[{"source":"ENISA EUVD","id":"EUVD-2026-112077","url":"https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/vulnerability/EUVD-2026-112077","modified":"Sep 9, 2026, 11:48:46 PM","score":7.8,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.541Z"},{"source":"GitHub Advisory Database","id":"GHSA-m835-3cm9-rggg","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-m835-3cm9-rggg","modified":"2026-09-09T23:48:46Z","score":7.8,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","checkedAt":"2026-10-28T14:10:31.694Z"}],"aiSummary":{"text":"Joker, a Clojure interpreter, linter, and formatter, executes project-local .jokerd/linter.* files during linting in versions prior to 1.8.2, allowing untrusted repository code to run with user privileges.
