Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Guardrails AI thru 0.6.7 contains a code injection vulnerability (CWE-94) in its Hub package installation
mechanism. When installing validator packages via guardrails hub install, the system retrieves a manifest
from the Guardrails Hub and dynamically executes a script specified in the post_install field. The script
path is constructed from untrusted manifest data and executed without proper validation or sanitization,
allowing remote code execution. An attacker who can publish malicious packages to the Hub can inject
arbitrary code that will be executed on any system where a victim installs the malicious package.
