### Impact A vulnerability has been identified within Rancher where a cluster or node driver can be used to escape the `chroot` jail and gain root access to the Rancher container itself. In production environments, further privilege escalation is possible based on living off the land within the Rancher container itself. For the test and development environments, based on a –privileged Docker container, it is possible to escape the Docker container and gain execution access on the host system. This happens because: - During startup, Rancher appends the `/opt/drivers/management-state/bin` directory to the `PATH` environment variable. - In Rancher, the binaries `/usr/bin/rancher-machine`, `/usr/bin/helm_v3`, and `/usr/bin/kustomize` are assigned a UID of 1001 and a GID of 127 instead of being owned by the root user. - Rancher employs a jail mechanism to isolate the execution of node drivers from the main process. However, the drivers are executed with excessive permissions. - During the...

php-heic-to-jpg <= 1.0.5 is vulnerable to remote code execution. An attacker who can upload heic images is able to execute code on the remote server via the file name. As a result, the CIA is no longer guaranteed. This affects php-heic-to-jpg 1.0.5 and below.

### Summary Usage of the `Butterfly.prototype.parseJSON` or `getJSON` functions on an attacker-controlled crafted input string allows the attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code on the server. Since Butterfly JavaScript code has access to Java classes, it can run arbitrary programs. ### Details The `parseJSON` function (edu/mit/simile/butterfly/Butterfly.js:64) works by calling `eval`, an approach that goes back to the original library by Crockford, before JSON was part of the ECMAScript language. It uses a regular expression to remove strings from the input, then checks that there are no unexpected characters in the non-string remainder. However, the regex is imperfect, as was [discovered earlier by Mike Samuel](https://dev.to/mikesamuel/2008-silently-securing-jsonparse-5cbb); specifically, the "cleaner" can be tricked into treating part of the input as a string that the "evaluator" does not, because of a difference in interpretation regarding the [the Unicode zero-width jo...

### Summary The Butterfly framework uses the `java.net.URL` class to refer to (what are expected to be) local resource files, like images or templates. This works: "opening a connection" to these URLs opens the local file. However, if a `file:/` URL is directly given where a relative path (resource name) is expected, this is also accepted in some code paths; the app then fetches the file, from a remote machine if indicated, and uses it as if it was a trusted part of the app's codebase. This leads to multiple weaknesses and potential weaknesses: * An attacker that has network access to the application could use it to gain access to files, either on the the server's filesystem (path traversal) or shared by nearby machines (server-side request forgery with e.g. SMB). * An attacker that can lead or redirect a user to a crafted URL belonging to the app could cause arbitrary attacker-controlled JavaScript to be loaded in the victim's browser (cross-site scripting). * If an app is written ...

### Summary In the `database` extension, the "enable_load_extension" property can be set for the SQLite integration, enabling an attacker to load (local or remote) extension DLLs and so run arbitrary code on the server. The attacker needs to have network access to the OpenRefine instance. ### Details The `database` extension, with some restrictions, lets users connect to any database they wish by filling in different parts of the JDBC URL that is used. For the SQLite integration, the extension expects a file path pointing to a database file (or a place where such a file can be created). This means that users can: * Read files on local or SMB filesystems, provided they are SQLite databases. * Write to files on local or SMB filesystems, as long as those files are either SQLite databases or empty. This seems to be the expected behavior. However, by adding `?enable_load_extension=true` to the filename, a [feature](https://www.sqlite.org/loadext.html) is toggled that additionally all...

### Summary Lack of CSRF protection on the `preview-expression` command means that visiting a malicious website could cause an attacker-controlled expression to be executed. The expression can contain arbitrary Clojure or Python code. The attacker must know a valid project ID of a project that contains at least one row. ### Details The `com.google.refine.commands.expr.PreviewExpressionCommand` class contains the following comment: ``` /** * The command uses POST but does not actually modify any state so it does not require CSRF. */ ``` However, this appears to be false (or no longer true). The expression being previewed (executed) can be written in GREL, Python, or Clojure. Since there are no restrictions on what code can be executed, the expression can do anything the user running OpenRefine can do. For instance, the following expressions start a calculator: ``` clojure:(.exec (Runtime/getRuntime) "gnome-calculator") ``` ``` jython:import os;os.system("gnome-calculator") ```...

This repository contains a Python script that exploits a remote code execution vulnerability in Grafana's SQL Expressions feature. By leveraging insufficient input sanitization, this exploit allows an attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the server. This is made possible through the shellfs community extension, which can be installed and loaded by an attacker to facilitate command execution.
