CKAN < 2.9.9 / 2.10.1 RCE

critical Nessus Plugin ID 176633

Synopsis

The version of CKAN installed on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of CKAN installed on the remote host is prior to 2.9.9 or 2.10 prior to 2.10.1. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. A remote attacker with permissions to create or edit a dataset can upload a resource with a specially crafted id to write the uploaded file in an arbitrary location. This can be leveraged to Remote Code Execution via Beaker's insecure pickle loading.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to version 2.9.9, 2.10.1 or later.
