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-2024-6038 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- chuanhuchatgpt (PyPI): affected all versions up to 20240410; no fix listed\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-2024-6038/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6038/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-6038","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6038/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-6038","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6w57-8p2p-2r2x","PYSEC-2024-318"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python chatbot library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause denial of service by injecting malicious regular expressions into the chat history filter function.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"@huntr_ai","cpe":[{"product":"chuanhuchatgpt","vendor":"gaizhenbiao"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1333","name":"Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity"}],"description":"A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability exists in the latest version of gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt. The vulnerability is located in the filter_history function within the utils.py module. This function takes a user-provided keyword and attempts to match it against chat history filenames using a regular expression search. Due to the lack of sanitization or validation of the keyword parameter, an attacker can inject a specially crafted regular expression, leading to a denial of service condition. This can cause severe degradation of service performance and potential system unavailability.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"ReDoS Vulnerability in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-6038","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2024"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Feng Office Workspaces sql injection","id":"CVE-2024-6039"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["20240410"],"package":"chuanhuchatgpt","purl":"pkg:pypi/chuanhuchatgpt","source":"PYSEC-2024-318"}],"prev":{"headline":"Arbitrary Folder Creation in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-6037"},"products":["gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt"],"published":"2024-06-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path Traversal in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-3234","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Path Traversal in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-5982","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-29"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Path Traversal in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-6255","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-31"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Improper Access Control in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-8613","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-20"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Authentication Bypass in gaizhenbiao/ChuanhuChatGPT","id":"CVE-2024-9216","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of Service (DoS) in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-10650","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of Service (DOS) in gaizhenbiao/chuanhuchatgpt","id":"CVE-2024-7807","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"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":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-15","vendors":["gaizhenbiao"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause denial of service by injecting malicious regular expressions into the chat history filter function.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6038/"}
