Security

A security vulnerability has been identified, and fixed, that could allow command execution on a user's computer when connecting to a malicious Codespace via gh codespace jupyter.

Users of gh codespace jupyter are advised to update gh to version v2.96.0 as soon as possible.

For more information see: https://github.com/cli/cli/security/advisories/GHSA-8cg3-r6g9-fpg2

Download release assets without authentication

gh release download now works against public repositories without authentication, matching gh extension install. A token is still used when one is present:

# Download assets from a public repository, no login required
gh release download v2.96.0 --repo cli/cli
