    Security

    Found user controlled content when spawning a process. This is dangerous because it allows a malicious actor to execute commands.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command (‘OS Command Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A01:2017 - Injection
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Detected SHA1 hash algorithm which is considered insecure. SHA1 is not collision resistant and is therefore not suitable as a cryptographic signature. Use SHA256 or SHA3 instead.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-327: Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
    OWASP:
    - A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
    - A02:2021 - Cryptographic Failures

    Detected MD5 hash algorithm which is considered insecure. MD5 is not collision resistant and is therefore not suitable as a cryptographic signature. Use SHA256 or SHA3 instead.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-327: Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
    OWASP:
    - A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
    - A02:2021 - Cryptographic Failures

    Found user controlled content in run_string. This is dangerous because it allows a malicious actor to run arbitrary Python code.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-95: Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code (‘Eval Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Detected use of xmlrpc. xmlrpc is not inherently safe from vulnerabilities. Use defusedxml.xmlrpc instead.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: LOW
    CWE:
    - CWE-776: Improper Restriction of Recursive Entity References in DTDs (‘XML Entity Expansion’)
    OWASP:
    - A04:2017 - XML External Entities (XXE)
    - A05:2021 - Security Misconfiguration

    Found user controlled data inside InteractiveConsole/InteractiveInterpreter method. This is dangerous if external data can reach this function call because it allows a malicious actor to run arbitrary Python code.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-95: Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code (‘Eval Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Found non static data as an index to ‘globals()’. This is extremely dangerous because it allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system. Refactor your code not to use ‘globals()’.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: LOW
    CWE:
    - CWE-96: Improper Neutralization of Directives in Statically Saved Code (‘Static Code Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Found user controlled content when spawning a process. This is dangerous because it allows a malicious actor to execute commands.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command (‘OS Command Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A01:2017 - Injection
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    The native Python xml library is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks. These attacks can leak confidential data and “XML bombs” can cause denial of service. Do not use this library to parse untrusted input. Instead the Python documentation recommends using defusedxml.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-611: Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference
    OWASP:
    - A04:2017 - XML External Entities (XXE)
    - A05:2021 - Security Misconfiguration

    The Python documentation recommends using defusedxml instead of xml because the native Python xml library is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks. These attacks can leak confidential data and “XML bombs” can cause denial of service.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: LOW
    CWE:
    - CWE-611: Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference
    OWASP:
    - A04:2017 - XML External Entities (XXE)
    - A05:2021 - Security Misconfiguration

    Detected subprocess function ‘$FUNC’ with user controlled data. A malicious actor could leverage this to perform command injection. You may consider using ‘shlex.escape()’.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command (‘OS Command Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A01:2017 - Injection
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Unverified SSL context detected. This will permit insecure connections without verifying SSL certificates. Use ‘ssl.create_default_context’ instead.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-295: Improper Certificate Validation
    OWASP:
    - A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
    - A07:2021 - Identification and Authentication Failures

    Detected the generation of a CSV file using the built-in csv module. If user data is used to generate the data in this file, it is possible that an attacker could inject a formula when the CSV is imported into a spreadsheet application that runs an attacker script, which could steal data from the importing user or, at worst, install malware on the user’s computer. defusedcsv is a drop-in replacement with the same API that will attempt to mitigate formula injection attempts. You can use defusedcsv instead of csv to safely generate CSVs.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: LOW
    CWE:
    - CWE-1236: Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File
    OWASP:
    - A01:2017 - Injection
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Found user-controlled data used in a system call. This could allow a malicious actor to execute commands. Use the ‘subprocess’ module instead, which is easier to use without accidentally exposing a command injection vulnerability.
    Likelihood: HIGH
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command (‘OS Command Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A01:2017 - Injection
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Found user controlled content in run_in_subinterp. This is dangerous because it allows a malicious actor to run arbitrary Python code.
    Likelihood: HIGH
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-95: Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code (‘Eval Injection’)
    OWASP:
    - A03:2021 - Injection

    Detected use of an insecure MD4 or MD5 hash function. These functions have known vulnerabilities and are considered deprecated. Consider using ‘SHA256’ or a similar function instead.
    Likelihood: LOW
    Confidence: MEDIUM
    CWE:
    - CWE-327: Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
    OWASP:
    - A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
