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.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-28T14:17:04.447+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-28T16:17:08.4+00:00","affected":[],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · security-advisories@github.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/candid82/joker/commit/f207521ef8abc22f30740591c3de5062c1aa628c","https://github.com/candid82/joker/security/advisories/GHSA-m835-3cm9-rggg","https://github.com/candid82/joker/tree/v1.8.2"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-59172","license":"NIST NVD usage terms; underlying source attribution retained","enrichment":{"sourceStatus":"Deferred","weaknesses":["CWE-829"],"productCriteria":[],"sourceDates":{"published":"2026-10-28T14:17:04.447","lastModified":"2026-10-28T16:17:08.400"},"relatedAdvisories":[],"note":"NVD analysis and CPE criteria are source context, not proof that a package or your environment is affected.
