CVE-2024-48818
Published: 25 March 2025
Description
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Security Summary
CVE-2024-48818 is a critical code injection vulnerability (CWE-94) affecting Bodhitree of cs101, a component developed by IIT Bombay, Mumbai, India. The flaw allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected system. It has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, lack of required privileges or user interaction, and significant impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Any unauthenticated attacker with network access to the vulnerable Bodhitree of cs101 instance can exploit this vulnerability. Exploitation requires no privileges or user interaction, enabling remote arbitrary code execution that could lead to full system compromise, data theft, modification, or disruption.
