CVE-2026-82533

A critical vulnerability in DeepSeek Harness, an open-source tool for running AI coding agents, allowed sandboxed agents to disable their own file sandbox by invoking a local web interface without authentication. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-82533, enabled an agent to switch its session to 'danger-full-access' mode via a single command, escaping file restrictions and potentially executing commands outside its workspace. The vulnerability affected versions 0.1.1-rc.2 and earlier, with the fix introduced in version 0.1.2-alpha.2, which added one-time token authentication for the local interface. Researchers from OX Research reported the issue, and community members had previously observed the same behavior before official disclosure.
