4. Hook Installer Exposes Unescaped TOTEM_CMD Interpolation — Shell Injection Surface Identified in CLI Package

A security audit has flagged a fragile interpolation pattern in the hook installation mechanism of the CLI package that, if left unaddressed, could enable shell injection. The file `packages/cli/src/commands/install-hooks.ts` writes a generated shell script where the `fallbackCmd` variable is substituted directly into ...

5. Terminal Lifecycle Handler Faces Shell-Injection Audit Over Unsafe Command Interpolation

Security researchers have identified a shell-injection vulnerability pathway in the terminal command template used across the codebase. The issue centers on a shell-script string built for `pty.spawn` that directly interpolates user-controlled values — including worktree paths, branch names, and agent prompts — without...

6. Critical Telegram Bot Token Exposed in Repository Commit; Full Chat Impersonation Possible

A security audit has uncovered a critical credential leak in a committed analysis file within the repository. A live Telegram bot token and associated chat identifier were found hardcoded in `reports/daily/2026-04-01/evidence/ALPACA_INTEGRITY_ARM_EXECUTION_TRACE.md` at lines 61–62 and 129–130. The exposed token grants ...

7. Rust State Invariant Bypass: ClosePipeline Silently Skips Safety Checks in Release Builds

A multi-stage security audit has uncovered a defense-in-depth parity gap in the `ClosePipeline` component of the `app` crate. The `start_close` and `start_persist` methods enforce a critical single-flight invariant—ensuring that close and persist operations never execute simultaneously—using `debug_assert!` statements ...

8. Security Audit Flags Two High-Severity CVEs in paramiko and diskcache With No Available Fixes

A security audit conducted on 2026-05-09 has uncovered two high-severity vulnerabilities in critical dependencies—paramiko and diskcache—both currently lacking patched versions. The findings expose a significant gap in the dependency chain, with upstream maintainers yet to release fixes for the identified CVEs. The aud...
