Linux bubblewrap helpers could escape through host temporary files before v0.18.0. On affected Linux bubblewrap deployments, code already executing inside a sandbox could access host temporary files, compromise the launcher and execute as the OS account running Omnigent. Administrator privileges were not required. The fix removes broad temporary-directory write grants from ACP, Goose, Kimi, Pi and Qwen helper paths, rejects write grants exposing the launcher directory and changes launcher files to owner-only permissions. This directly overturns the old unsandboxed-runner-only mitigation.

Channel: tagged-release. Half: defect. Date: 2026-10-13T08:57:51Z.

Operator consequence: Upgrade agent hosts to 0.18.0 and restart affected helper processes. Until then use the advisory’s disposable VM or container without sensitive host credentials or host filesystem mounts. A patched package on the central server does not replace already running helpers on another host.
