What is CVE-2024-49400?

CVE-2024-49400 is a critical vulnerability in Meta Tacquito, published on 17 Oct 2024. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Tacquito prior to commit 07b49d1358e6ec0b5aa482fcd284f509191119e2 was not properly performing regex matches on authorized commands and arguments. Configured allowed commands/arguments were intended to require a match on the entire string, but instead only enforced a match on a sub-string. That would have potentially allowed unauthorized commands to be executed.
