Summary
Bulletin ID: 2026-173-AWS
Publication Date: 11/06/2026 09:00 AM PST
Description:
We identified CVE-2026-122193, an OS command injection issue in an example provided in the set-up documentation. The example included a script that creates AWS Systems Manager (SSM) documents (Rex-RO and Rex-RW) for running scripts on managed instances.
Due to how the example script handled input parameters, a user with permissions to invoke the SSM document could supply crafted input that would run unintended operating system commands on the managed instance, outside of the REX sandbox. The scriptArgs parameter is affected by the same class of issue.
Impacted versions:
This is not an issue in a shipped REX artifact version.
