What is CVE-2024-55890?
CVE-2024-55890 is a medium-severity code injection vulnerability in man-group dtale, published on 13 Dec 2024. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
D-Tale is a visualizer for pandas data structures. Prior to version 3.16.1, users hosting D-Tale publicly can be vulnerable to remote code execution allowing attackers to run malicious code on the server. Users should upgrade to version 3.16.1 where the `update-settings` endpoint blocks the ability for users to update the `enable_custom_filters` flag. The only workaround for versions earlier than 3.16.1 is to only host D-Tale to trusted users.
