Authenticated command execution via BPMN expression evaluation
Published Mar 6, 2025 · Updated Mar 6, 2025
Server-side template injection in RuoYi-Vue Pro 2.4.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands through BPMN model deployment. The deploy path evaluates attacker-supplied Flowable expressions embedded in BPMN XML, allowing a JavaScript engine expression to invoke Runtime.exec. Exploitation requires a valid bearer token and permission to create, deploy, and trigger a workflow model; successful execution runs commands on the application host.
