## Summary Untrusted local .mise.toml [settings] can set the shell interpreter args (unix/windows default_inline / default_file shell_args), yielding arbitrary command execution, because those command-interpreter settings were not added to the global_only denylist the CVE-2026-55448 fix relies on. Code execution from an untrusted repository with no trust prompt for the malicious file, on par with the patched CVE. Confirmed at HEAD 7160170206782fdd3ef287c8302369e32152fb71. ## The defect CVE-2026-55448 and CVE-2026-35533 fixed the fact that a local project [settings] table is harvested by the settings preloader independent of the trust store (an untrusted .mise.toml sets settings without the user ever trusting it). The remediation is a per-field global_only denylist: settings marked global_only are stripped from non-global config. The maintainers marked the command-execution fields they knew about (the three forge credential_command values) but did not mark the four shell-interpreter-args settings, which are also command-execution settings because they choose the interpreter for every command mise spawns. The global_only denylist and the gap. In settings.toml, the three credential_command sinks are global_only (forgejo.credential_command around line 775, github.credential_command around 828, gitlab.credential_command around 990). The four shell-args settings do not carry global_only: - unix_default_file_shell_args (settings.toml around 2920) - unix_default_inline_shell_args (around 2926) - windows_default_file_shell_args (around 3004) - windows_default_inline_shell_args (around 3010) The strip logic only removes global_only keys. src/config/settings.rs strip_local_only_settings (line 409) filters by meta.global_only (line 416: ), so any field not marked global_only survives from a local untrusted config. The settings preload loads every config path including the local project file (all_settings_files, line 778), and in default (non-safe) mode there is no trust check (
