Summary

Skyvern through 1.0.56 contains a sandbox bypass that lets an authenticated user run code on the server. The script checker, an incomplete denylist (CWE-184), can be evaded by rebuilding functions from raw bytecode with types.CodeType. An authenticated remote attacker with low privileges can deploy scripts that import blocked modules such as subprocess or socket and run code in the Skyvern server process.
