🤖 Progress DataDirect agent flaw enables OS command execution

Progress disclosed CVE-2026-91140, a critical command injection issue in early-access DataDirect Autonomous REST Connector AI Model Generator agents. A crafted OpenAPI/Swagger file can pass shell metacharacters through a filename field and trigger arbitrary OS commands when the DataDirect ARC AI Model Generator processes it. Fixed agent definitions are available in version 2.1.

The exposure sits in developer workspaces and CI runners, where successful execution can reach source code, tokens, and cloud credentials. Detection is limited because Progress notes no specific product error message; review environments that handled untrusted API specs and replace affected agent files.
