CVE-2026-19060Public exploit

Unsafe code generation via trusted project guidance

Published Aug 6, 2026 · Updated Aug 6, 2026

Code injection in Foundation Agents MetaGPT 0.8.0 through 0.8.2 allows local users to generate unsafe code through crafted project guidance. The code-generation workflow treats supplied coding standards as authoritative and replaces parameterized SQL with attacker-influenced string interpolation. Exploitation requires control of project guidance, and the public demonstration used 1.0.0, so affected-release applicability rests on the CNA listing.
