CVE-2022-25914Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Code execution via executable-path validation

Published Sep 8, 2022 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Code injection in Google Jib Core before 0.22.0 allows remote attackers to execute an attacker-selected program through a crafted executable path. CliDockerClient.isDockerInstalled passes the supplied dockerExecutable path directly to ProcessBuilder.start instead of checking the path, causing the validation call itself to launch that file. Exploitation requires a consuming application to pass attacker-controlled path input into this library API; execution occurs with the application's privileges.
