Tier B because: Full takeover OR secrets exposed OR supply chain

Reach

Attack

Damage

Fix

Full takeover

What to do

  1. Update opencode to the release that contains the fix

The Brief

  • opencode fixed a remote code execution (RCE) flaw that ran without user consent.
  • The source describes the flaw as arising from a 'Refactor'; it gives no version numbers or CVE.

Why it matters

Developers running opencode should update to the fixed release, and the source argues that agent CLIs need browser-style automatic updates for fixes like this to reach users.
