-description: >
-  Detects CVE-2026-30624 (CVSS HIGH, CWE-77): Agent Zero 0.9.8 passes the
-  `command` and `args` fields from the mcp_servers configuration directly to OS
-  subprocess execution without validation. An attacker who can supply or modify
-  an Agent Zero MCP server configuration can inject a shell binary or interpreter
-  with inline-exec flags, executing arbitrary commands on the host when Agent Zero
-  initialises its MCP servers.
-
-  The attack is equivalent to the class-level vulnerability documented in OX
-  Security's "MCP by design" advisory (April 2026) and shares root cause with
-  CVE-2026-30617 (LangChain-ChatChat), CVE-2026-40933 (Flowise), and
-  CVE-2026-30623 (LiteLLM) — all lack validation of user-controlled MCP STDIO
-  command fields before subprocess spawning.
-
-  Agent Zero's configuration format uses 'mcp_servers' as the outer key with
-  JSON or dict-style objects containing 'name', 'command', and 'args'.
-
-  Detection covers:
-  (a) mcp_servers config with shell binary in the command field;
-  (b) mcp_servers config where interpreter (-c/-e flags) or netcat/curl command
