Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2026-02-26 02:16 - Updated: 2026-07-13 05:50

Details

OpenLIT is an open source platform for AI engineering. Prior to version 1.37.1, several GitHub Actions workflows in OpenLIT's GitHub repository use the pull_request_target event while checking out and executing untrusted code from forked pull requests. These workflows run with the security context of the base repository, including a write-privileged GITHUB_TOKEN and numerous sensitive secrets (API keys, database/vector store tokens, and a Google Cloud service account key). Version 1.37.1 contains a fix.
