Arbitrary code execution in MindsDB with Weaviate integration via SQL.
An arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists in versions 23.10.3.0 up to 24.7.4.1 of the MindsDB platform, when the Weaviate integration is installed on the server. If a specially crafted โSELECT WHEREโ clause containing Python code is run against a database created with the Weaviate engine, the code will be passed to an eval function and executed on the server.
Prompt injection in Vanna library allows remote code execution.
The Vanna library uses a prompt function to present the user with visualized results, it is possible to alter the prompt using prompt injection and run arbitrary Python code instead of the intended visualization code. Specifically - allowing external input to the libraryโs โaskโ method with "visualize" set to True (default behavior) leads to remote code execution.
Arbitrary code execution via non-boolean CLI arguments in tqdm.
tqdm is an open source progress bar for Python and CLI. Any optional non-boolean CLI arguments (e.g. `--delim`, `--buf-size`, `--manpath`) are passed through python's `eval`, allowing arbitrary code execution. This issue is only locally exploitable and had been addressed in release version 4.66.3. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
aiosmtpd allows unencrypted commands post-STARTTLS, risking MITM attacks.
aiosmptd is a reimplementation of the Python stdlib smtpd.py based on asyncio. Prior to version 1.4.6, servers based on aiosmtpd accept extra unencrypted commands after STARTTLS, treating them as if they came from inside the encrypted connection. This could be exploited by a man-in-the-middle attack. Version 1.4.6 contains a patch for the issue.
Vulnerability in PyAnsys Geometry allows malicious operations via _start_program.
PyAnsys Geometry is a Python client library for the Ansys Geometry service and other CAD Ansys products. On file src/ansys/geometry/core/connection/product_instance.py, upon calling this method _start_program directly, users could exploit its usage to perform malicious operations on the current machine where the script is ran. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.3.3 and 0.4.12.
Pillow 10.1.0 allows arbitrary code execution via the environment parameter.
Pillow through 10.1.0 allows PIL.ImageMath.eval Arbitrary Code Execution via the environment parameter, a different vulnerability than CVE-2022-22817 (which was about the expression parameter).
HTML injection vulnerability in `redirectTo` may lead to XSS attacks.
Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications, supporting Python 3.6+. The `twisted.web.util.redirectTo` function contains an HTML injection vulnerability. If application code allows an attacker to control the redirect URL this vulnerability may result in Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the redirect response HTML body. This vulnerability is fixed in 24.7.0rc1.
ZenML Server allows remote privilege escalation via an insecure API endpoint.
ZenML Server in the ZenML machine learning package before 0.46.7 for Python allows remote privilege escalation because the /api/v1/users/{user_name_or_id}/activate REST API endpoint allows access on the basis of a valid username along with a new password in the request body. These are also patched versions: 0.44.4, 0.43.1, and 0.42.2.
SQL injection in vanna v0.3.4 allows unauthorized file access.
vanna-ai/vanna version v0.3.4 is vulnerable to SQL injection in some file-critical functions such as `pg_read_file()`. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated remote users to read arbitrary local files on the victim server, including sensitive files like `/etc/passwd`, by exploiting the exposed SQL queries via a Python Flask API.
Open redirect vulnerability due to incorrect URL validation in pyLoad.
pyLoad is an open-source Download Manager written in pure Python. There is an open redirect vulnerability due to incorrect validation of input values when redirecting users after login. pyLoad is validating URLs via the `get_redirect_url` function when redirecting users at login. This vulnerability has been patched with commit fe94451.
