{"id":"GHSA-vg8g-jpm9-jh8r","summary":"Unsafe pyyaml load usage in PyAnyAPI","details":"An exploitable vulnerability exists in the YAML parsing functionality in the YAMLParser method in Interfaces.py in PyAnyAPI before 0.6.1. A YAML parser can execute arbitrary Python commands resulting in command execution because `load` is used where `safe_load` should have been used. An attacker can insert Python into loaded YAML to trigger this vulnerability.","aliases":["CVE-2017-16616","PYSEC-2017-23"],"modified":"2024-10-21T21:01:29.823210Z","published":"2022-05-13T01:44:08Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":"2017-11-08T03:29:00Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-502"],"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2022-05-26T18:45:59Z"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-16616"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Stranger6667/pyanyapi/issues/41"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Stranger6667/pyanyapi/commit/810db626c18ebc261d5f4299d0f0eac38d5eb3cf"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/Stranger6667/pyanyapi"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Stranger6667/pyanyapi/releases/tag/0.6.1"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-vg8g-jpm9-jh8r"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/tree/main/vulns/pyanyapi/PYSEC-2017-23.yaml"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://joel-malwarebenchmark.github.io/blog/2017/11/08/cve-2017-16616-yamlparser-in-pyanyapi"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyanyapi/0.6.1"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"pyanyapi","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/pyanyapi"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.6.1"}]}],"versions":["0.4","0.5","0.5.1","0.5.2","0.5.3","0.5.4","0.5.5","0.5.6","0.5.7","0.5.8","0.6.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2022/05/GHSA-vg8g-jpm9-jh8r/GHSA-vg8g-jpm9-jh8r.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
