Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from ShelveStore
's use of Python's shelve
module which relies on insecure pickle
serialization. Both read()
and save()
methods interact directly with shelve.open()
without any validation or safe serialization protocol. The attack vector involves tampering with shelve
-stored session data, which when deserialized via ShelveStore.read()
would execute arbitrary code. The complete removal of ShelveStore
in the patch confirms these functions were the vulnerability source.
