github.com/mayuresh82/gocast fixed: Latest secure release
Upgrade github.com/mayuresh82/gocast to Latest secure release
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for github.com/mayuresh82/gocast

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2024-28892, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/mayuresh82/gocast:

inspect dependencies for github.com/mayuresh82/gocast

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/mayuresh82/gocast in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection'), where the product constructs all or part of an os command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended os command when it is sent to a downstream component. In Github.com/mayuresh82/gocast, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in the name parameter of GoCast 1.1.3. A specially crafted HTTP request can lead to arbitrary command execution. An attacker can make an unauthenticated HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.
