An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-1540 exists.\n\nAffected product: Gradio Project Gradio. 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-2024-1540/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-1540/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-1540","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-1540/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-1540","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GitHub Actions workflow","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute unauthorized commands via GitHub Actions workflows, potentially modifying repositories or exfiltrating secrets.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"@huntr_ai","cpe":[{"product":"gradio","vendor":"gradio_project"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"A command injection vulnerability exists in the deploy+test-visual.yml workflow of the gradio-app/gradio repository, due to improper neutralization of special elements used in a command. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute unauthorized commands, potentially leading to unauthorized modification of the base repository or secrets exfiltration. The issue arises from the unsafe handling of GitHub context information within a `run` operation, where expressions inside `${{ }}` are evaluated and substituted before script execution. Remediation involves setting untrusted input values to intermediate environment variables to prevent direct influence on script generation.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-09-01","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-09-01T02:41:02Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/pvharmo2/gha-lab-8e9316151c","stars":0,"title":"Controlled security-research lab reproducing CVE-2024-1540 (GitHub Actions command injection in gradio-app/gradio deploy+test-visual.yml) — flattened snapshot of gradio-app/gradio @ f35f615e33a5dd90bfeb106b6f5dca689849fcef"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Command Injection in gradio-app/gradio via deploy+test-visual.yml workflow","id":"CVE-2024-1540","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gradio_project:gradio","products":["gradio_project:gradio"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Kadence Blocks — Page Builder Toolkit for Gutenberg Editor","id":"CVE-2024-1541"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing Authorization in GitLab","id":"CVE-2024-1539"},"products":["gradio-app/gradio"],"published":"2024-03-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Withdrawn Advisory: Gradio was discovered to contain a code injection vulnerability via the component /gradio/component_meta.py","id":"CVE-2024-39236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-01"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Command Injection in gradio-app/gradio","id":"CVE-2023-6572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File in Gradio Flagging","id":"CVE-2022-24770","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-17"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Gradio \u003c 6.16.0 Path Traversal via FileExplorer.preprocess()","id":"CVE-2026-49119","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-01"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Gradio Blocked Path ACL Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23042","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-01-14"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in gradio-app/gradio","id":"CVE-2024-4325","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-06"}],"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)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-21","vendors":["gradio-app"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute unauthorized commands via GitHub Actions workflows, potentially modifying repositories or exfiltrating secrets.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-1540/"}
