CVE-2026-40502 is a vulnerability in OpenHarness prior to commit dd1d235450dd987b20bff01b7bfb02fe8620a0af. The flaw is in the gateway handler, where insufficient distinction between local-only commands and commands considered safe for remote use allows remote gateway users with chat access to invoke sensitive administrative commands through remote chat sessions. The provided example is execution of /permissions full_auto, which changes the permission mode of a running OpenHarness instance without operator authorization. The issue is described as a command injection vulnerability, though the supporting details specifically indicate unauthorized invocation of privileged administrative commands via the gateway command-handling path.
