CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability affects DIRAC versions prior to 8.0.79, 9.0.22, and 9.1.10, allowing authenticated users to exploit a lack of parameterization in SQL queries within the DataManagementSystem, leading to command execution. Successful exploitation can result in full system compromise, exposing sensitive configuration files, database credentials, and the ability to manipulate log evidence. Organizations using DIRAC should prioritize updating to the patched versions to mitigate this critical risk.

Original NVD Description
DIRAC is an interware, meaning a software framework for distributed computing. Prior to versions 8.0.79, 9.0.22, and 9.1.10, DataManagementSystem/Service/FileCatalogHandler.py checkDataset forwards an authenticated caller-controlled datasets value to DatasetManager.py __checkDataset, where datasetName is interpolated into an FC_MetaDatasets SQL query without parameterization. The injected query can control the returned MetaQuery value, which is passed to Python eval and permits command execution as the account running the DIRAC services. Successful exploitation can expose dirac.cfg, database passwords, stored proxies, and tokens, fully compromise the DIRAC system, and allow alteration of local log evidence. This issue is fixed in versions 8.0.79, 9.0.22, and 9.1.10.
