CVE-2022-41955

Autolab is a course management service, initially developed by a team of students at Carnegie Mellon University, that enables instructors to offer autograded programming assignments to their students over the Web. A remote code execution vulnerability was discovered in Autolab's MOSS functionality, whereby an instructor with access to the feature might be able to execute code on the server hosting Autolab. This vulnerability has been patched in version 2.10.0. As a workaround, disable the MOSS feature if it is unneeded by replacing the body of `run_moss` in `app/controllers/courses_controller.rb` with `render(plain: "Feature disabled", status: :bad_request) && return`.

Summary
  • (es) Autolab es un servicio de gestión de cursos, desarrollado inicialmente por un equipo de estudiantes de la Universidad Carnegie Mellon, que permite a los instructores ofrecer tareas de programación autocalificadas a sus estudiantes a través de la Web. Se descubrió una vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código en la funcionalidad MOSS de Autolab, mediante la cual un instructor con acceso a la función podría ejecutar código en el servidor que aloja Autolab. Esta vulnerabilidad ha sido parcheada en la versión 2.10.0. Como workaround, deshabilite la función MOSS si no es necesaria reemplazando el cuerpo de `run_moss` en `app/controllers/courses_controller.rb` with `render(plain: "Feature disabled", status: :bad_request) && return`.
