critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 419785
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- pyLoad is a free and open-source Download Manager. The folder `/.pyload/scripts` has scripts which are run
when certain actions are completed, for e.g. a download is finished. By downloading a executable file to a
folder in /scripts and performing the respective action, remote code execution can be achieved in versions
prior to 0.5.0b3.dev87. A file can be downloaded to such a folder by changing the download folder to a
folder in `/scripts` path and using the `/flashgot` API to download the file. This vulnerability allows an
attacker with access to change the settings on a pyload server to execute arbitrary code and completely
compromise the system. Version 0.5.0b3.dev87 fixes this issue. (CVE-2024-47821)
