Supply Chain Vulnerability in Basel Uncovered by SciCode

SciCode researchers identified vulnerabilities in workflows, particularly command injection vulnerabilities, which allow malicious inputs to interrupt and inject workflows. These vulnerabilities can be challenging to detect using standard security tools, as they reside in composite actions. Composite actions, akin to functions within workflows, proved to be susceptible to command injections, posing a significant risk.
