Description
Continue CLI (@continuedev/cli) through 1.5.47 contains a permission bypass vulnerability that allows attackers to run unapproved commands by chaining them after allowed Bash prefix rules. Attackers can inject instructions into repository files or fetched pages so the agent appends commands after ;, && or | to execute code as the user.
