CVE-2026-33310
Intake has a Command Injection via shell() Expansion in Parameter Defaults
Reported by github_m · Published March 24, 2026
intake is fixed in 2.0.9 (PyPI)
Intake is a package for finding, investigating, loading and disseminating data. Prior to version 2.0.9, the shell() syntax within parameter default values appears to be automatically expanded during the catalog parsing process. If a catalog contains a parameter default such as shell(<command>), the command may be executed when the catalog source is accessed. This means that if a user loads a malicious catalog YAML, embedded commands could execute on the host system. Version 2.0.9 mitigates the issue by making getshell False by default everywhere.
