Developer-level command execution via unsanitized file path
Published Nov 10, 2025 · Updated Nov 10, 2025
Command injection in Google Cloud Looker allows remote authenticated users with Developer permission to execute arbitrary shell commands. The user-deletion path fails to sanitize a file path before a shell operation, allowing traversal-derived input to become command syntax. Exploitation requires Developer permission and a user-deletion event; successful commands run on the host system in hosted or self-hosted instances.
