Recommended response

  1. 1Check inventory. Check lockfiles and deployed manifests for codewhale-tui, deepseek-tui, Hmbown/CodeWhale.
  2. 2Review the reported fix. Update codewhale-tui to 0.8.64; Hmbown/CodeWhale to 0.8.64; Hmbown/CodeWhale to 0.8.41; codewhale to 0.8.64; codewhale to 0.8.64; deepseek-tui to 0.8.41; deepseek-tui to 0.8.41; codewhale-tui to 0.8.64 if you use the affected versions. Test the change in a non-production environment first.

Upstream source description

CodeWhale versions before 0.8.64 fail to validate file paths in the project config instructions field, allowing attackers to read arbitrary files on the victim's system. A malicious .codewhale/config.toml file in a cloned repository can specify paths outside the workspace that are read and injected into the AI system prompt for exfiltration.
