composiohq/composio: Improper Control of Dynamically-Managed Code Resources
CVE-2024-8953 is a critical-severity improper control of dynamically-managed code resources vulnerability in composiohq/composio from ComposioHQ, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected composiohq/composio versions: latest and earlier. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 1.21% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 69% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of composiohq/composio you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
In composiohq/composio version 0.4.3, the mathematical_calculator endpoint uses the unsafe eval() function to perform mathematical operations. This can lead to arbitrary code execution if untrusted input is passed to the eval() function.

The underlying weakness: Improper Control of Dynamically-Managed Code Resources
The product does not properly restrict reading from or writing to dynamically-managed code resources such as variables, objects, classes, attributes, functions, or executable instructions or statements.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- For any externally-influenced input, check the input against an allowlist of acceptable values.
- Refactor the code so that it does not need to be dynamically managed.
