CVE-2023-45597Network attack vector

Code execution via unneutralized exported CSV formulas

Published Mar 5, 2024 · Updated Aug 28, 2024

CSV formula injection in AiLux imx6 bundle before 1.0.7-2 allows remote authenticated users to create code-executing CSV files. The web application's file_configuration export_file function writes attacker-supplied formula elements into generated CSV fields without neutralizing them. A victim must download and open the poisoned file, enabling formula-triggered code execution or confidential-information disclosure on the victim's workstation.
