CVE-2024-47821
CRITICAL9.1EPSS 1.8%pyLoad vulnerable to remote code execution by download to /.pyload/scripts using /flashgot API
Description
pyLoad is a free and open-source Download Manager. The folder `/.pyload/scripts` has scripts which are run when certain actions are completed, for e.g. a download is finished. By downloading a executable file to a folder in /scripts and performing the respective action, remote code execution can be achieved in versions prior to 0.5.0b3.dev87. A file can be downloaded to such a folder by changing the download folder to a folder in `/scripts` path and using the `/flashgot` API to download the file. This vulnerability allows an attacker with access to change the settings on a pyload server to execute arbitrary code and completely compromise the system. Version 0.5.0b3.dev87 fixes this issue.
Affected packages (2)
- PyPI/pyload-ngfrom 0, < 0.5.0b3.dev87
- PyPI/pyload-ngfrom 0, <= 0.5.0
