CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe SENAITE laboratory information management system's core framework is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution due to inadequate authorization checks and unsafe evaluation in its JSON API. Attackers can exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary Python code, potentially compromising laboratory data, files, and user accounts, while also disrupting services. Organizations using SENAITE versions 2.0.0 to 2.6.0 should prioritize immediate remediation to mitigate these critical risks.

Original NVD Description
SENAITE.CORE is the core framework for the SENAITE laboratory information management system. From 2.0.0 to 2.6.0, the SENAITE.CORE JSON API permits unauthenticated remote code execution through a two-request chain involving missing authorization and unsafe evaluation. The state-changing routes in src/bika/lims/jsonapi/update.py, including update, update_many, remove, doActionFor, doActionFor_many, and getusers, do not enforce the senaite.core: Access JSON API permission before resolving attacker-selected objects. In src/bika/lims/jsonapi/init.py, set_fields_from_request passes raw request values for RecordsField and RecordField instances to eval() before field mutator write-permission checks execute. An anonymous attacker can discover the bika_setup object identifier through @@uuid, send a value such as RejectionReasons to /@@API/update, and execute arbitrary Python in the Zope worker before a later mutation failure rolls back ZODB changes. The same unsafe evaluation pattern is present in src/senaite/core/browser/fields/record.py and src/senaite/core/browser/fields/records.py. Successful exploitation can expose or modify laboratory data, files, and accounts and can disrupt the service.
