GHSA-p3f3-5ccg-83xq: dbt-core (CVE-2024-40637)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
dbt-core	PyPI	>=1.6.0, <1.6.14 \|\| >=1.7.0, <1.7.14	1.6.14, 1.7.14

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

dbt-core versions 1.6.0 before 1.6.14 and 1.7.0 before 1.7.14 are affected. A materialization defined in an installed package that shares a name with a built-in materialization was preferred by default, so a malicious package could replace dbt's behavior with harmful code. Upgrade to dbt-core 1.6.14, 1.7.14, or 1.8.0 or later. For older versions, set the flag require_explicit_package_overrides_for_builtin_materializations to False in dbt_project.yml to require explicit overrides.
