Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-07-23 15:31 – Updated: 2025-07-23 15:31
VLAI
Details

A remote code execution vulnerability exists within osCommerce Online Merchant version 2.3.4.1 due to insecure default configuration and missing authentication in the installer workflow. By default, the /install/ directory remains accessible after installation. An unauthenticated attacker can invoke install_4.php, submit crafted POST data, and inject arbitrary PHP code into the configure.php file. When the application later includes this file, the injected payload is executed, resulting in full server-side compromise.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-08 23:08 – Updated: 2026-06-08 23:08
VLAI
Summary
nebula-mesh: Host advanced overrides allow YAML injection into agent config.yml
Details

internal/configgen/generator.go:86,108,119 interpolates the operator-supplied ListenHost and TunDevice fields raw into a text/template that produces the agent's config.yml. internal/web/advanced.go:20-35 accepts both with only strings.TrimSpace — no character or shape validation.

Exploit

An operator (or attacker with any operator key, given the cross-tenant CRUD advisory) sets adv_tun_device to:

nebula0
lighthouse:
  am_lighthouse: true
  hosts: ["10.0.0.1"]
#

The agent fetches the rendered config on its next signed poll. On config reload, it loads the injected YAML keys: the host self-promotes to lighthouse, attracts mesh traffic, or sets am_relay: true to be selected as a relay. The ListenHost field has the same shape.

Affected

All released versions prior to v0.3.2.

Threat model

  • Today: operator can compromise their own host's config (trivially allowed if they own the host, but they can also set lighthouse/relay flags that the operator-create form does NOT expose — privilege uplift within their own tenant).
  • Combined with the critical /api/v1 authz advisory: any operator key can mutate ANOTHER tenant's host overrides and inject YAML there.
  • Post-fix of the authz advisory: still relevant — the agent unconditionally trusts whatever config the server hands it, so any future operator-impersonation bug re-amplifies this.

Suggested fix

Two options, either acceptable:

  1. Input validation in parseAdvancedFromForm (internal/web/advanced.go):
  2. ListenHost: regex ^[A-Za-z0-9.:\[\]_-]+$ (IPv4/IPv6/hostname)
  3. TunDevice: regex ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,15}$ (Linux IFNAMSIZ caps at 15) Reject invalid input with a form-level error; do not write to the host row.

  4. Safer marshalling: switch configgen/generator.go to marshal a typed Go struct via gopkg.in/yaml.v3 (which escapes correctly) instead of text/template string-concat. Larger change, but eliminates this entire injection class.

Option 2 is preferable long-term. Option 1 is the quick fix.

The unsafe_routes advanced field is already netip.Parse{Prefix,Addr}-validated at enroll.go:226-233 — apply the same validation discipline to the other advanced fields.

Summary
Code injection in FreeIPA
Details

A flaw was found in IPA, all 4.6.x versions before 4.6.7, all 4.7.x versions before 4.7.4 and all 4.8.x versions before 4.8.3, in the way the internal function ber_scanf() was used in some components of the IPA server, which parsed kerberos key data. An unauthenticated attacker who could trigger parsing of the krb principal key could cause the IPA server to crash or in some conditions, cause arbitrary code to be executed on the server hosting the IPA server.

VLAI
Details

The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 via the '->cus1' parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with author-level permissions or above, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to execute code on the server. The author resolved this vulnerability by removing the ability for authors and editors to import files, please note that this means remote code execution is still possible for site administrators, use the plugin with caution.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Refactoring

Refactor your program so that you do not have to dynamically generate code.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • Run your code in a "jail" or similar sandbox environment that enforces strict boundaries between the process and the operating system. This may effectively restrict which code can be executed by your product.
  • Examples include the Unix chroot jail and AppArmor. In general, managed code may provide some protection.
  • This may not be a feasible solution, and it only limits the impact to the operating system; the rest of your application may still be subject to compromise.
  • Be careful to avoid CWE-243 and other weaknesses related to jails.
Mitigation MIT-5
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

  • Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
  • When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
  • Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
  • To reduce the likelihood of code injection, use stringent allowlists that limit which constructs are allowed. If you are dynamically constructing code that invokes a function, then verifying that the input is alphanumeric might be insufficient. An attacker might still be able to reference a dangerous function that you did not intend to allow, such as system(), exec(), or exit().
Mitigation
Testing

Use dynamic tools and techniques that interact with the product using large test suites with many diverse inputs, such as fuzz testing (fuzzing), robustness testing, and fault injection. The product's operation may slow down, but it should not become unstable, crash, or generate incorrect results.

Mitigation MIT-32
Operation

Strategy: Compilation or Build Hardening

Run the code in an environment that performs automatic taint propagation and prevents any command execution that uses tainted variables, such as Perl's "-T" switch. This will force the program to perform validation steps that remove the taint, although you must be careful to correctly validate your inputs so that you do not accidentally mark dangerous inputs as untainted (see CWE-183 and CWE-184).

Mitigation MIT-32
Operation

Strategy: Environment Hardening

Run the code in an environment that performs automatic taint propagation and prevents any command execution that uses tainted variables, such as Perl's "-T" switch. This will force the program to perform validation steps that remove the taint, although you must be careful to correctly validate your inputs so that you do not accidentally mark dangerous inputs as untainted (see CWE-183 and CWE-184).

Mitigation
Implementation

For Python programs, it is frequently encouraged to use the ast.literal_eval() function instead of eval, since it is intentionally designed to avoid executing code. However, an adversary could still cause excessive memory or stack consumption via deeply nested structures [REF-1372], so the python documentation discourages use of ast.literal_eval() on untrusted data [REF-1373].

CAPEC-242: Code Injection

An adversary exploits a weakness in input validation on the target to inject new code into that which is currently executing. This differs from code inclusion in that code inclusion involves the addition or replacement of a reference to a code file, which is subsequently loaded by the target and used as part of the code of some application.

CAPEC-35: Leverage Executable Code in Non-Executable Files

An attack of this type exploits a system's trust in configuration and resource files. When the executable loads the resource (such as an image file or configuration file) the attacker has modified the file to either execute malicious code directly or manipulate the target process (e.g. application server) to execute based on the malicious configuration parameters. Since systems are increasingly interrelated mashing up resources from local and remote sources the possibility of this attack occurring is high.

CAPEC-77: Manipulating User-Controlled Variables

This attack targets user controlled variables (DEBUG=1, PHP Globals, and So Forth). An adversary can override variables leveraging user-supplied, untrusted query variables directly used on the application server without any data sanitization. In extreme cases, the adversary can change variables controlling the business logic of the application. For instance, in languages like PHP, a number of poorly set default configurations may allow the user to override variables.
