Summary
MoviePilot through 3.1.5 contains a command injection flaw (CWE-77). Instructions embedded in untrusted content, such as web pages or torrent metadata processed by the AI assistant, can make the model run shell commands through its execute_command tool. A remote attacker without credentials can run arbitrary OS commands on the host with the admin session's privileges by bypassing the command denylist.

Description from the CNA
MoviePilot through 3.1.5 contains a command injection vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands by embedding malicious instructions in untrusted content processed through tools like browse_webpage, search_web, and torrent metadata parsers, which then get passed to the unrestricted ExecuteCommandTool via asyncio.create_subprocess_shell. Attackers can craft content that instructs the model to invoke execute_command with confirm_dangerous set to true, bypassing the validate_command_safety denylist and exploiting the admin session's is_admin context to achieve remote code execution on the host.
