Title
Nuclio Shell Runtime Command Injection Leading to Privilege Escalation
Summary
Nuclio is a "Serverless" framework for Real-Time Events and Data Processing. Prior to version 1.15.20, the Nuclio Shell Runtime component contains a command injection vulnerability in how it processes user-supplied arguments. When a function is invoked via HTTP, the runtime reads the X-Nuclio-Arguments header and directly incorporates its value into shell commands without any validation or sanitization. This issue has been patched in version 1.15.20.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
