Unauthenticated code execution via AWEL flow import
Published Mar 2, 2026 · Updated Mar 2, 2026
Code injection in DB-GPT 0.7.5 allows remote attackers to execute Python code by uploading a crafted AWEL flow package. The Flow Import endpoint accepts an archive, and dag/loader.py passes its extracted init.py to SourceFileLoader.exec_module without validating the imported code. The v1 authentication check returns without enforcing an API key, so network access to the endpoint is sufficient and execution occurs in the server process context.
