How to Fix CVE-2017-11366

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Codiad/codiad dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

codiad/codiad fixed: 2.8.3
Upgrade codiad/codiad to 2.8.3
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 codiad/codiad

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2017-11366, inspect your project dependencies for Codiad/codiad:

inspect dependencies for codiad/codiad

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Codiad/codiad in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.8.3), 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 Codiad/codiad, 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

components/filemanager/class.filemanager.php in Codiad before 2.8.3 is vulnerable to remote command execution because shell commands can be embedded in parameter values, as demonstrated by `search_file_type`.
