CVE-2022-36065
GrowthBook is an open-source platform for feature flagging and A/B testing. With some self-hosted configurations in versions prior to 2022-08-29, attackers can register new accounts and upload files to arbitrary directories within the container. If the attacker uploads a Python script to the right location, they can execute arbitrary code within the container.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
To be affected, ALL of the following must be true: Self-hosted deployment (GrowthBook Cloud is unaffected); using local file uploads (as opposed to S3 or Google Cloud Storage); NODE_ENV set to a non-production value and JWT_SECRET set to an easily guessable string like `dev`. This issue is patched in commit 1a5edff8786d141161bf880c2fd9ccbe2850a264 (2022-08-29). As a workaround, set `JWT_SECRET` environment variable to a long random string. This will stop arbitrary file uploads, but the only way to stop attackers from registering accounts is by updating to the latest build.

Con algunas configuraciones auto-alojadas en versiones anteriores al 29-08-2022, los atacantes pueden registrar nuevas cuentas y subir archivos a directorios arbitrarios dentro del contenedor. Si el atacante sube un script de Python a la ubicación correcta, puede ejecutar código arbitrario dentro del contenedor. Para ser afectado, TODO lo siguiente debe ser cierto: despliegue auto-alojado (GrowthBook Cloud no está afectado); el uso de cargas de archivos locales (en lugar de S3 o Google Cloud Storage); NODE_ENV establecido a un valor no de producción y JWT_SECRET establecido a una cadena fácilmente adivinable como \"dev\". Este problema está parcheado en el commit 1a5edff8786d141161bf880c2fd9ccbe2850a264 (2022-08-29). Como mitigación, establezca la variable de entorno \"JWT_SECRET\" a una cadena larga y aleatoria. Esto detendrá la carga de archivos arbitrarios, pero la única forma de evitar que los atacantes registren cuentas es actualizando a la última versión.\n"
