An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-32807 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- accesscontrol (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3, 5.2\n- accesscontrol (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3\n- accesscontrol (PyPI): affected from 5.0; fixed in 5.2\n- AccessControl (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3\n- AccessControl (PyPI): affected from 5.0; fixed in 5.2\n- zope (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3, 5.2\n- zope (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3\n- zope (PyPI): affected from 4.0; fixed in 4.3\n- zope (PyPI): affected from 5.0; fixed in 5.2\n- zope (PyPI): affected from 5.0; fixed in 5.2\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32807/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32807/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-32807","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32807/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-32807","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf","PYSEC-2021-335","PYSEC-2021-875"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Zope AccessControl library","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers with Manager role can execute arbitrary code via unsafe classes in permitted modules, requiring non-default web editing permissions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"accesscontrol","vendor":"zope"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1321","name":"Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes"},{"id":"CWE-915","name":"Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes"}],"description":"The module `AccessControl` defines security policies for Python code used in restricted code within Zope applications. Restricted code is any code that resides in Zope's object database, such as the contents of `Script (Python)` objects. The policies defined in `AccessControl` severely restrict access to Python modules and only exempt a few that are deemed safe, such as Python's `string` module. However, full access to the `string` module also allows access to the class `Formatter`, which can be overridden and extended within `Script (Python)` in a way that provides access to other unsafe Python libraries. Those unsafe Python libraries can be used for remote code execution. By default, you need to have the admin-level Zope \"Manager\" role to add or edit `Script (Python)` objects through the web. Only sites that allow untrusted users to add/edit these scripts through the web - which would be a very unusual configuration to begin with - are at risk. The problem has been fixed in AccessControl 4.3 and 5.2. Only AccessControl versions 4 and 5 are vulnerable, and only on Python 3, not Python 2.7. As a workaround, a site administrator can restrict adding/editing `Script (Python)` objects through the web using the standard Zope user/role permission mechanisms. Untrusted users should not be assigned the Zope Manager role and adding/editing these scripts through the web should be restricted to trusted users only. This is the default configuration in Zope.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Remote Code Execution via unsafe classes in otherwise permitted modules","id":"CVE-2021-32807","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2021"},"n_packages":10,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in ckeditor via abuse of undo functionality","id":"CVE-2021-32808"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3"],"introduced":["4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"AccessControl","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["5.2"],"introduced":["5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"AccessControl","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3","5.2"],"introduced":["4.0","5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"accesscontrol","purl":"pkg:pypi/accesscontrol","source":"PYSEC-2021-335"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3"],"introduced":["4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"accesscontrol","purl":"pkg:pypi/accesscontrol","source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["5.2"],"introduced":["5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"accesscontrol","purl":"pkg:pypi/accesscontrol","source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3","5.2"],"introduced":["4.0","5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"zope","purl":"pkg:pypi/zope","source":"PYSEC-2021-875"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3"],"introduced":["4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"zope","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["4.3"],"introduced":["4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"zope","purl":"pkg:pypi/zope","source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["5.2"],"introduced":["5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"zope","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["5.2"],"introduced":["5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"zope","purl":"pkg:pypi/zope","source":"GHSA-qcx9-j53g-ccgf"}],"prev":{"headline":"URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') in Products.isurlinportal","id":"CVE-2021-32806"},"products":["AccessControl"],"published":"2021-07-30","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Remote Code Execution via Script (Python) objects under Python 3","id":"CVE-2021-32811","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-02"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Information disclosure through Python's \"format\" functionality in Zope AccessControl","id":"CVE-2023-41050","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-06"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["zopefoundation"]},"summary":"Attackers with Manager role can execute arbitrary code via unsafe classes in permitted modules, requiring non-default web editing permissions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32807/"}
