Descriptions

A vulnerability in the parisneo/lollms-webui version 9.3 allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and execute arbitrary code. The issue arises from the application's handling of the `/execute_code` endpoint, which is intended to be blocked from external access by default. However, attackers can exploit the `/update_setting` endpoint, which lacks proper access control, to modify the `host` configuration at runtime. By changing the `host` setting to an attacker-controlled value, the restriction on the `/execute_code` endpoint can be bypassed, leading to remote code execution. This vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command (`Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command`).

Una vulnerabilidad en la versión 9.3 de parisneo/lollms-webui permite a los atacantes eludir las restricciones de acceso previstas y ejecutar código arbitrario. El problema surge del manejo por parte de la aplicación del endpoint `/execute_code`, que está manipulado para bloquear el acceso externo de forma predeterminada. Sin embargo, los atacantes pueden aprovechar el endpoint `/update_setting`, que carece de control de acceso adecuado, para modificar la configuración del `host` en tiempo de ejecución. Al cambiar la configuración de `host` a un valor controlado por el atacante, se puede eludir la restricción en el endpoint `/execute_code`, lo que lleva a la ejecución remota de código. Esta vulnerabilidad se debe a una neutralización inadecuada de elementos especiales utilizados en un comando del sistema operativo ("Neutralización inadecuada de elementos especiales utilizados en un comando del sistema operativo").
