CVE-2024-2358Network attack vector

Remote code execution via extensions path traversal

Published May 16, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Path traversal in LoLLMs WebUI allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through the /apply_settings endpoint. The handler accepts traversal sequences in the extensions setting, resolves an attacker-selected directory, and loads its malicious init.py file. Exploitation requires network access to the unauthenticated WebUI and runs code with the privileges of the server process.
