The command auto-approval module in CodeRider-Kilo contains an OS Command Injection vulnerability that renders its whitelist security mechanism ineffective. The vulnerability stems from incorrect use of a Unix-based shell-quote library to analyze commands on Windows platforms, failing to handle Windows CMD-specific escape sequences. Attackers can exploit this parser discrepancy by constructing payloads like 'git log ^" & malicious_command ^"' to bypass whitelist checks. The CodeRider-Kilo parser misinterprets the malicious command connector as being within a protected string argument, while Windows CMD ignores escaped quotes and executes the malicious command directly. This allows attackers to achieve arbitrary Remote Code Execution after bypassing legitimate Git whitelist checks.
