No fix is confirmed yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for the fix.

The CVE record's description, written by its CNA (VulDB), states the affected versions: "A security flaw has been discovered in RooCodeInc Roo-Code up to 3.51.1." No release containing a fix is confirmed on record.

A security flaw has been discovered in RooCodeInc Roo-Code up to 3.51.1. Affected by this vulnerability is the function optimizeQuery of the file src/utils/helpers.ts of the component CodeIndexManager. Performing a manipulation results in code injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. Multiple isses were reported to the vendor beforehand. They explain, that "they all apply to Roo Code, a project we no longer support - the repository was archived a while ago, and we don't encourage anyone to use it." This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

Exploitation public PoC (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

Data Freshness Timeline

(refreshed 17× in last 7d / 77× in last 30d)

Each row is a time one of our pipelines fetched, updated or re-scored this CVE. For example, "NVD update" means NVD published or revised its analysis for this CVE; "MITRE cvelistV5" means we ingested or refreshed it from the CNA feed. An arrow marks a change the record states ("CVSS v3 → 9.1"); EPSS and GHSA rows show the values recorded at that time, not what changed (EPSS values are rounded; hover one for the exact figures). Most recent first.

Showing the most recent 99 of 127 refreshes on record for this CVE.

A repeat, a row identical to one the same pipeline wrote less than 10 seconds earlier, is not a separate refresh and is not counted. 1 repeat row among the latest 100 is merged into the row it repeats. The 28 oldest rows on record are not shown and were not checked, so the counts can still include repeats.

When was the CVE record for CVE-2026-81833 published?
The CVE record for CVE-2026-81833 was published on August 27, 2026. That is the record's publication date; the vulnerability itself may have been made public earlier. EchelonGraph's copy of the record carries a last-modified date of August 31, 2026; the record at its source may have been updated since.
Is CVE-2026-81833 actively exploited?
CVE-2026-81833 is not currently on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. FIRST EPSS estimates a 0.3% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days (21st percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs).
What is the CVSS score of CVE-2026-81833?
CVE-2026-81833 has a CVSS base score of 5.5 (a secondary CVSS source that NVD displays; NVD's own analysis pending).
How do I remediate CVE-2026-81833?
No fix for CVE-2026-81833 is confirmed yet. Until one is published, restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation — for example, keep it off the internet or limit it to trusted networks — and watch the vendor's advisory for the fix. The CVE record's description, written by its CNA (VulDB), states the affected versions: "A security flaw has been discovered in RooCodeInc Roo-Code up to 3.51.1." No release containing a fix is confirmed on record. The vendor advisories EchelonGraph has for CVE-2026-81833 are linked in the Vendor Advisories panel on this page.
