CVE-2026-10176: Aider-AI Aider Code Generation Workflow sql injection

A weakness has been identified in Aider-AI Aider 0.86.3. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component Code Generation Workflow. Executing a manipulation can lead to sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

Aider-AI Aider 0.86.3 is reported to have a SQL injection weakness in its code generation workflow. The issue is remotely reachable, requires authentication per the CVSS vector, and has a public proof of concept. No confirmed active exploitation or vendor fix is shown in the bundle.

Executive priority

Treat this as a moderate-priority exposure review, not an emergency internet-wide incident. Public exploit availability raises urgency, but authentication is required and no active exploitation is confirmed. Prioritize teams using Aider 0.86.3 in shared, automated, or externally reachable workflows.

Technical view

The reported flaw is CWE-89/CWE-74 in an unspecified Code Generation Workflow function of Aider 0.86.3. VulDB rates it CVSS 6.5 with network access, low complexity, authenticated access, and partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The vulnerable code path and patch status are not defined in the provided sources.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most likely where Aider 0.86.3 is installed and its code generation workflow is reachable by authenticated remote users or automation. The bundle does not identify a specific endpoint, deployment model, or database path, so teams must confirm local usage.

Exploitation context

The bundle says an exploit is publicly available and could be used, but KEV is false and no cited source confirms active exploitation. The CVSS vector indicates authentication is required, lowering broad internet risk while still mattering for shared or semi-trusted environments.

Researcher notes

Evidence is thin: the affected function is unknown, the report says SQL injection, and the submit title mentions code injection. No patch, commit, or vendor acknowledgement is included. Validation should focus on version presence, reachable workflow paths, and any downstream datastore impact.

Mitigation direction

  • Inventory Aider deployments and flag version 0.86.3 for review.
  • Restrict access to Aider workflows to trusted authenticated users only.
  • Avoid exposing affected workflows to untrusted remote inputs.
  • Monitor Aider-AI issue 5077 and VulDB for vendor guidance.
  • Apply a vendor patch or workaround when published.
  • Use least-privilege database access for any connected datastore.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm installed Aider versions in developer and automation environments.
  • Identify whether the Code Generation Workflow is enabled or remotely reachable.
  • Review access controls for users or systems invoking Aider workflows.
  • Check logs for unusual SQL errors or unexpected data changes.
  • Track the referenced GitHub issue for maintainer response.
  • Do not test public proof-of-concept material in production.
