CVE-2024-21552Network attack vector

Remote code execution via evaluated LLM output

Published Jul 22, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Code injection in all versions of SuperAGI allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the application server through crafted LLM output. TaskOutputHandler.handle and ReplaceTaskOutputHandler.handle pass JSON-array text extracted from the assistant reply directly to Python eval(), which treats model-controlled text as executable code. The attacker must influence an agent's LLM response; successful injection runs with the SuperAGI server process's privileges and can affect its data and availability.
