Description
MindsDB OpenBBtable Code Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of MindsDB. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the OpenBBtable class. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute Python code. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the service account. Was ZDI-CAN-28388.

AI Analysis

Impact

MindsDB’s OpenBBtable component contains an unchecked string that is passed to the Python interpreter, allowing an authenticated attacker to run arbitrary code in the service account context. The vulnerability falls under code injection and can lead to complete system compromise, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement.

Affected Systems

The affected vendor is MindsDB, product MindsDB. Specific affected versions are not listed in the available data.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates a high severity flaw. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not yet listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack requires authenticated access to the MindsDB service; an attacker with valid credentials can supply a malicious string to the OpenBBtable API and trigger remote code execution. In the absence of mitigation steps, the high severity and authentication requirement suggest that this flaw could be leveraged by attackers who have compromised credentials or by victim organizations that expose the service over networks.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest patch or update released by MindsDB that fixes the OpenBBtable code injection flaw.
  • If a patch is not yet available, isolate the MindsDB instance from untrusted networks and restrict authenticated access to a narrow set of privileged users only.
  • Configure firewall or network segmentation to block any inbound traffic to the MindsDB service except from known, trusted IP ranges.
  • Enable detailed logging for Python execution events and monitor logs for unexpected code activity, escalating any suspicious events to incident response.
