Claude Code fixes Bash permission bypass

Claude Code patched a Bash permission bypass that let crafted commands evade permission checks, plus similar gaps in prompts and sandboxes, while adding a warning for restricted subagent models and making /review an alias of /code-review.

  • Claude Code fixed a Bash permission bypass where crafted commands could hide from permission checks, along with related gaps in permission prompts and workflow sandboxes.
  • Claude Code now warns when a requested subagent model is restricted and the parent model runs instead, and added a /teleport hint for continuing cloud sessions locally.
  • Claude Code added owner wildcard entries to marketplace management settings and made /review an alias of /code-review.

Bash permission bypass fixed; sandbox escapes closed

v2.1.223

Fixed a Bash permission bypass where crafted commands could hide from permission checks, plus similar gaps in permission prompts and workflow sandboxes. 1M-context models are now held to 200K via auto-compaction, and unknown model IDs keep sessions within the assumed window unless explicitly disabled. Also added a warning when a requested subagent model is restricted, a /teleport hint in cloud sessions, and made /review an alias of /code-review.

Claude Code patches worktree and hook-bypass flaws

Claude Code's latest release closes two security holes — destructive git commands from worktree-isolated sessions and a PreToolUse hook bypass — while also fixing an HTTPS proxy hang and a usage-credits block for dismissed Team/Enterprise requests.

  • Claude Code now enforces worktree isolation on file edits and Bash across all session types, preventing destructive git commands against the main checkout.
  • PreToolUse auto-allow hooks can no longer be bypassed in background agent tasks like summaries, compaction, and renames.

Worktree isolation strengthened; hook bypass fixed

v2.1.222

Fixed a security issue where worktree-isolated sessions could run destructive git commands against the main checkout, and another where PreToolUse auto-allow hooks could be bypassed in background agent tasks; isolation now applies to file edits and Bash in every session type. Also fixed a startup connectivity check that hung behind HTTPS proxies and a usage-credits block for Team/Enterprise members with dismissed requests, plus a range of other fixes across MCP attribution, Pull Request linking, and screen-reader mode.
