dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Anypoint Code Builder versionCheck the installed version through your IDE's extension/plugin manager (VS Code Extensions view or Eclipse About dialog). Look for 'Anypoint Code Builder' and note the version number displayed.Affected if The displayed version is lower than 1.12.1 (e.g., 1.12.0, 1.11.0, etc.)

-
Identify writeable config files in workspaceReview the project directory for configuration files that Anypoint Code Builder can modify. Check for JSON, YAML, or XML config files in src/, config/, or root project directories that have write permissions.Affected if The workspace contains writeable configuration files (JSON, YAML, XML) that the LLM feature can access and modify
Your environment is affected if Anypoint Code Builder is installed with a version below 1.12.1 AND the LLM prompting feature is actively used with writeable configuration files present in the workspace.
