CVE-2026-54344: ToolJet GitHub Actions comment body shell injection exposes deployment secrets
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.36% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone on the same network segment can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: ToolJet ToolJet 3.20.180.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 4.7, NVD 8.8.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to ToolJet ToolJet 3.20.180 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
ToolJet is an open-source low-code platform for building internal tools. Prior to 3.20.180, ToolJet's render preview deployment workflow interpolates github.event.comment.body directly into a bash conditional in a run step, allowing any GitHub user who can comment on an open pull request with a deploy command to execute shell commands on the CI runner and exfiltrate deployment secrets. This issue is reported as fixed in version 3.20.180.
