CodeRAG is a lightweight semantic code search and distillation utility for AI coding agents. Prior to 1.3.1, the default agent-coderag sync flow in code_rag/entry/cli.py calls sync_dependencies for an indexed path, and code_rag/core/manager.py treats build.gradle or build.gradle.kts as sufficient to invoke _sync_gradle. _sync_gradle prefers a repository-controlled gradlew or gradlew.bat file and passes it directly to asyncio.create_subprocess_exec with the repository root as the working directory; validate_path in code_rag/core/utils.py constrains the directory location but does not validate the executable's content or integrity. A victim who indexes an attacker-controlled Gradle repository therefore executes attacker-supplied code with the victim's operating-system privileges, allowing disclosure, modification, persistence, or denial of service in the user environment. This issue is fixed in 1.3.1.

GHSA-wg5p-8h9p-3mr7 — agent-coderag: Gradle Wrapper Execution During Dependency Discovery Enables Arbitrary Code Execution

Affected: PyPI: agent-coderag

## Gradle Wrapper Execution During Dependency Discovery Enables Arbitrary Code Execution

### Summary

`agent-coderag` unconditionally executes a repository-controlled `gradlew` script during its default `sync` dependency-discovery flow. An attacker who can induce a victim to index a malicious Gradle repository (one containing `build.gradle` and a crafted `gradlew`) achieves arbitrary code execution with the victim's OS privileges. No authentication, no extra flags, and no elevated permissions are required; the attack fires on the default `agent-coderag sync <path>` invocation.

### Details

The vulnerability exists across a four-step call chain in the `sync` command:

**1. Entry point — `code_rag/entry/cli.py:70`**

```python await manager.sync_dependencies(args.path or ".") ```

`sync_dependencies()` is called unconditionally before indexing. There is no opt-in flag; any `agent-coderag sync` invocation triggers dependency discovery.

**2. Gradle project detection — `code_rag/core/manager.py:40-47`**

The presence of a `build.gradle` or `build.gradle.kts` file in the target directory is sufficient to invoke `_sync_gradle()`. No additional checks are performed.

**3. Wrapper selection — `code_rag/core/manager.py:110-113`**

```python gradle_wrapper = root / ("gradlew.bat" if os.name == "nt" else "gradlew") gradle_bin: Optional[str] = None if gradle_wrapper.exists(): gradle_bin = str(gradle_wrapper.resolve()) else: gradle_bin = shutil.which("gradle") ```
