mistral-vibe is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution

CVE Score
High
Remote Code Execution
TL;DR
Mistral Vibe gathers project context on session start by running Git commands such as git status --porcelain, git branch, and git log through ProjectContextProvider._run_git. These invocations do not disable Git's core.fsmonitor setting, which names an external program that Git executes to refresh file status. Because core.fsmonitor can be defined in a repository's own .git/config, opening or running the tool inside an untrusted repository executes that program with the user's privileges before any trust prompt is shown. The fix passes -c core.fsmonitor= on every Git invocation so a repository-declared hook is overridden and never executed.
How do I fix this?
Upgrade the mistral-vibe library to the patch version.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you run the tool inside a repository whose .git/config is not fully trusted.
