An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-29171 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: sourcegraph. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2022-29171/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-29171/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-29171","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-29171/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-29171","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Sourcegraph code search","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Site admins with Grafana access can inject commands via Gitolite integration to execute code on the underlying infrastructure.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"sourcegraph","vendor":"sourcegraph"}],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"Sourcegraph is a fast and featureful code search and navigation engine. Versions before 3.38.0 are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in the gitserver service. The Gitolite code host integration with Phabricator allows Sourcegraph site admins to specify a `callsignCommand`, which is used to obtain the Phabricator metadata for a Gitolite repository. An administrator who is able to edit or add a Gitolite code host and has administrative access to Sourcegraph’s bundled Grafana instance can change this command arbitrarily and run it remotely. This grants direct access to the infrastructure underlying the Sourcegraph installation. The attack requires: site-admin privileges on the instance of Sourcegraph, Administrative privileges on the bundled Grafana monitoring instance, Knowledge of the gitserver IP address or DNS name (if running in Kubernetes). This can be found through Grafana. The issue is patched in version 3.38.0. You may disable Gitolite code hosts. We still highly encourage upgrading regardless of workarounds.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Remote Code Execution in sourcegraph","id":"CVE-2022-29171","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"HTML injection with additional signup fields","id":"CVE-2022-29172"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Grafana Enterprise datasource network restrictions bypass via HTTP redirects","id":"CVE-2022-29170"},"products":["sourcegraph"],"published":"2022-05-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Incorrect default permissions found in Sourcegraph","id":"CVE-2022-41943","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code Injection in Sourcegraph","id":"CVE-2022-23642","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-18"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Sourcegraph vulnerable to Comand Injection via gitserver","id":"CVE-2022-41942","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-22"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Side-channel attack in Sourcegraph Code Monitors","id":"CVE-2022-23643","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-15"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Side-channel attack in Sourcegraph","id":"CVE-2021-43823","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-13"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Indirect Object Access in Sourcegraph Code Monitoring","id":"CVE-2022-31154","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-23","vendors":["sourcegraph"]},"summary":"Site admins with Grafana access can inject commands via Gitolite integration to execute code on the underlying infrastructure.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-29171/"}
