NASA Kodiak version v1.0 contains a CWE-502 vulnerability in Kodiak library's data processing function that can result in remote code execution. This attack appear to be exploitable via Victim opens an untrusted file for optimization using Kodiak library.
The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/502.html →Open in CWE collection →An adversary attempts to exploit an application by injecting additional, malicious content during its processing of serialized objects. Developers leverage serialization in order to convert data or state into a static, binary format for saving to disk or transferring over a network. These objects are then deserialized when needed to recover the data/state. By injecting a malformed object into a vulnerable application, an adversary can potentially compromise the application by manipulating the deserialization process. This can result in a number of unwanted outcomes, including remote code execution.
