Kiota: Path/URL injection into generated Copilot plugin manifest via x-ai-* extensions

Published Jul 16, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 9.3 Critical EPSS 1.3% KEV · Not listed
Description
Kiota is an OpenAPI based HTTP Client code generator. Prior to 1.29.1 and 1.32.5, `kiota plugin add` and `kiota plugin generate` (with `-t APIPlugin`) emitted attacker-controlled static_template.file values from x-ai-adaptive-card and x-ai-capabilities into generated Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams plugin manifests without path validation, allowing ../, absolute, rooted, UNC, Windows drive, or URI paths in response_semantics.static_template.file to cause path traversal or out-of-package file inclusion when the generated plugin was deployed. This issue is fixed in version 1.29.1 and 1.32.5.
