Remote code execution via unsandboxed Plotly code
Published Jun 27, 2024 · Updated Oct 15, 2025
Code injection in Vanna 0.6.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Python code through a crafted natural-language query. VannaBase.ask sends LLM-generated Plotly code to exec in src/vanna/base/base.py without sandboxing or substantive validation. The path requires visualization and a configured database query, and the injected code runs with the backend process's privileges.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=0
- Affected versionversion=unspecified <=latest
