CVE-2020-14000
CRITICAL9.8EPSS 6.6%Remote Code Execution in scratch-vm
Published: 7/27/2020Modified: 11/8/2023
Also known as:GHSA-vc9j-fhvv-8vrf
Description
MIT Lifelong Kindergarten Scratch scratch-vm before `0.2.0-prerelease.20200714185213` loads extension URLs from untrusted project.json files with certain `_` characters, resulting in remote code execution because the URL's content is treated as a script and is executed as a worker. The responsible code is `getExtensionIdForOpcode` in serialization/sb3.js. The use of `_` is incompatible with a protection mechanism in older versions, in which URLs were split and consequently deserialization attacks were prevented. **NOTE**: the scratch.mit.edu hosted service is not affected because of the lack of worker scripts.
