The application might dynamically evaluate untrusted input, which can lead to a code injection vulnerability. An attacker can execute arbitrary code, potentially gaining complete control of the system. To prevent this vulnerability, avoid executing code containing user input. If this is unavoidable, validate and sanitize the input, and use safe alternatives for evaluating user input.
Likelihood: MEDIUM
Confidence: MEDIUM
CWE:
- CWE-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code (‘Code Injection’)
OWASP:
- A03:2021 - Injection
