A high-severity command injection vulnerability in a build script allowed attackers who control CLI arguments to execute arbitrary shell commands by injecting metacharacters into an unvalidated parameter. The fix validates incoming CLI arguments and rejects those containing dangerous shell metacharacters before they reach command execution.
A critical vulnerability in a Python build script allowed potential man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass SHA256 checksum verification by serving malicious checksums alongside compromised binaries. This fix implements proper cryptographic signature verification, ensuring that downloaded artifacts are genuinely from trusted sources—not just matching a potentially tampered checksum file.
