CVE-2024-21513

Summary

CVE-2024-21513 is a vulnerability affecting versions 0.0.15 and below 0.0.21 of the langchain-experimental package. It allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code when retrieving values from the database by exploiting the use of the 'eval' function. The impact of this vulnerability on the vulnerable component includes code execution, potential loss of data integrity, and a risk of system availability issues during post-exploitation steps. However, the vulnerability itself does not grant the attacker unauthorized access to data owned by the package. The attacker must be able to influence the input prompt and the server must be configured with the VectorSQLDatabaseChain plugin to exploit this issue.
