CVE-2024-1880Public exploit

Arbitrary code execution via unsanitized speech text

Published Jun 6, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

OS command injection in AutoGPT 0.5.0 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary code through macOS speech text. The MacOSTTS._speech method inserts user-supplied text into an os.system invocation of the say command without shell neutralization. The path is reachable only when the instance runs on macOS with --speak enabled and TEXT_TO_SPEECH_PROVIDER set to macos.
