Kiota: Code Generation Literal Injection in the PHP Generator

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 07.07.2026 Published: 16.07.2026 Updated: 16.07.2026

Kiota is an OpenAPI based HTTP Client code generator. Prior to 1.32.4, Kiota's PHP generator embedded OpenAPI description, default fields, property names, and other schema-derived strings into PHP double-quoted literals through SanitizeDoubleQuote() in Writers/StringExtensions.cs without escaping $, allowing attacker-controlled ${...}, $var, or {$obj->prop} interpolation constructs to inject arbitrary PHP code into generated model and request-builder classes. This issue is fixed in version 1.32.4.
