GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2025-58178

Impact

A command injection vulnerability was discovered in the SonarQube Scan GitHub Action that allows untrusted input arguments to be processed without proper sanitization. Arguments sent to the action are treated as shell expressions, allowing potential execution of arbitrary commands.

Patches

A fix has been released in SonarQube Scan GitHub Action v5.3.1.

CVE-2025-59844

A command injection vulnerability exists in SonarQube GitHub Action prior to v6.0.0 when workflows pass user-controlled input to the args parameter on Windows runners without proper validation. This vulnerability bypasses a previous security fix and allows arbitrary command execution, potentially leading to exposure of sensitive environment variables and compromise of the runner environment.

Patches

The vulnerability has been fixed in version v6.0.0. Users should upgrade to this version or later.
