## What is CVE-2024-2366?

CVE-2024-2366 is a critical path traversal vulnerability in parisneo/lollms-webui, published on 16 May 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the parisneo/lollms-webui application, specifically within the reinstall_binding functionality in lollms_core/lollms/server/endpoints/lollms_binding_infos.py of the latest version. The vulnerability arises due to insufficient path sanitization, allowing an attacker to exploit path traversal to navigate to arbitrary directories. By manipulating the binding_path to point to a controlled directory and uploading a malicious __init__.py file, an attacker can execute arbitrary code on the server.

Weakness: CWE-77 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command)

## Fix prompt for AI coding agents

```text
Check this codebase for CVE-2024-2366 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2024-2366 is a critical path traversal vulnerability in parisneo/lollms-webui, published on 16 May 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-2366 exists.

Affected product: parisneo/lollms-webui. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
