What is CVE-2025-35028?

A command injection vulnerability exists in the HexStrike AI MCP server's EnhancedCommandExecutor class. Attackers can exploit this flaw by supplying a command-line argument that begins with a semi-colon (;) to an API endpoint. This bypasses normal security measures, leading to commands being executed with elevated privileges, typically root access. The server's default configuration fails to sanitize input, creating potential risks for misuse and unauthorized access to sensitive systems.
