Severity high
CWE CWE-95: Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code ('Eval Injection')
OWASP A03:2021 - Injection
Confidence Level Medium
Impact Level High
Likelihood Level Medium

Description

User-supplied data is being passed directly to Python's 'eval' function. This allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary code on your server if they control the input.

Impact

If exploited, an attacker could run any Python code on your system, potentially leading to data theft, server takeover, or complete compromise of your application and its underlying infrastructure.
