CVE-2023-39323

Отчет

This attack requires knowledge of the absolute path to the file containing the malicious directive, which significantly limits its feasibility for external attackers unless they already have local access or detailed knowledge of the system's layout. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker must also convince a developer to download and build a malicious Go module—an action typically constrained by trusted workflows and package verification. Importantly, this vulnerability does not impact running applications. Instead, it targets the development process, specifically developers or CI/CD pipelines during the build phase, further narrowing its scope. As a result, this issue has been rated Moderate due to the multiple complex and unlikely prerequisites required for a successful exploit. Within regulated environments, a combination of the following controls acts as a significant barrier to successfully exploiting a CWE-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability and therefore downgrades the severity of this particular CVE from Moderate to Low. The platform leverages a web application firewall (WAF) to filter and block malicious input before it reaches the application. It applies managed and custom rule sets to detect suspicious patterns such as embedded scripting functions and remote code execution attempts. By enforcing strict input validation and preventing unauthorized execution of user-supplied code, the WAF reduces the risk of exploitation. Additional protections like rate limiting and bot mitigation help prevent automated injection attacks, while integration with logging, monitoring, and threat detection systems enhances visibility and response capabilities. Through real-time monitoring and automated blocking, the WAF provides a strong layer of defense against code injection vulnerabilities, lowering the likelihood of successful exploitation.
