Summary

WeRSS (we-mp-rss) through 1.5.3 by rachelos has a remote code execution flaw in the template parameter of the public GET /rss/{feed_id} endpoint. Eval injection (CWE-95) lets an attacker supply a non-built-in ext value and an expression template that bypasses the eval denylist. An unauthenticated remote attacker can run OS commands as the service account. CISA's SSVC assessment rates exploitation as proof of concept.

Description from the CNA

WeRSS (we-mp-rss) through 1.5.3 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to run code via the template parameter of the public GET /rss/{feed_id} endpoint. Attackers can supply a non-built-in ext value and a {{=expression}} template whose object-subclass traversal bypasses the eval denylist to run OS commands as the service account.
