**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

Use after free in Microsoft Office allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition and also to take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires a client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.

### Summary Using timeit.timeit() function, which is a built-in python library function to execute remote pickle file. ### Details Pickle’s deserialization process is known to allow execution of function via reduce method. While Picklescan is meant to detect such exploits, this attack evades detection by calling built-in python library function like **timeit.timeit()**. And since timeit library wasn't inside unsafe globals blacklist, it may not raise red flag in the security scan. The attack payload executes in the following steps: First, the attacker craft the payload by calling to **timeit.timeit()** function from timeit library in __reduce__ method Then, inside reduce method, the attacker import dangerous libarary like os and calling **os.system()** to run OS commands, for example: curl command. And then the attacker send this malicious pickle file to the victim. Then when the victim after checking whether the pickle file is safe by using Picklescan library and this library doesn...

### Summary An unsafe deserialization vulnerability in Python’s pickle module allows an attacker to bypass static analysis tools like Picklescan and execute arbitrary code during deserialization. This can be exploited by import some built-in function in Numpy library that indrectly call some dangerous function like exec() to execute some python code as a parameter, which the attacker can import dangerous library inside like os library and execute arbitrary OS commands. ### Details Pickle’s deserialization process is known to allow execution of function via **reduce** method. While Picklescan is meant to detect such exploits, this attack evades detection by calling function in Numpy library that call dangerous function like exec(). And since Numpy library wasn't inside unsafe globals blacklist, it may not raise red flag in the security scan. The attack payload executes in the following steps: - First, the attacker craft the payload by import **runstring** function in **numpy.testing._p...

### Summary A Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability caused by insecure deserialization has been identified in the latest version(v1.4.2) of BentoML. It allows any unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary code on the server. ### Details It exists an unsafe code segment in `serde.py`: ```Python def deserialize_value(self, payload: Payload) -> t.Any: if "buffer-lengths" not in payload.metadata: return pickle.loads(b"".join(payload.data)) ``` Through data flow analysis, it is confirmed that the `payload `content is sourced from an HTTP request, which can be fully manipulated by the attack. Due to the lack of validation in the code, maliciously crafted serialized data can execute harmful actions during deserialization. ### PoC Environment: - Server host: - IP: 10.98.36.123 - OS: Ubuntu - Attack host: - IP: 10.98.36.121 - OS: Ubuntu 1. Follow the instructions on the BentoML official README(https://github.com/bentoml/BentoML) to set up the environment. 1.1 I...
