Assigner: Apache Software Foundation

Description
In Apache CloudStack improper control of generation of code ('Code Injection') vulnerability is found in the following APIs which are accessible only to admins. * quotaTariffCreate * quotaTariffUpdate * createSecondaryStorageSelector * updateSecondaryStorageSelector * updateHost * updateStorage This issue affects Apache CloudStack: from 4.18.0 before 4.20.2, from 4.21.0 before 4.22.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.20.2 or 4.22.0, which contain the fix. The fix introduces a new global configuration flag, js.interpretation.enabled, allowing administrators to control the interpretation of JavaScript expressions in these APIs, thereby mitigating the code injection risk.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a code injection issue in Apache CloudStack affecting certain admin-only APIs. It allows improper control over the generation of code via JavaScript expressions in APIs such as quotaTariffCreate, quotaTariffUpdate, createSecondaryStorageSelector, updateSecondaryStorageSelector, updateHost, and updateStorage. This means an attacker with admin access could inject malicious code through these APIs.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker with admin privileges to execute arbitrary code within Apache CloudStack, potentially leading to unauthorized actions, data manipulation, or system compromise. This could undermine the security and integrity of the cloud environment.

Mitigation Strategies

To mitigate this vulnerability, you should upgrade Apache CloudStack to version 4.20.2 or 4.22.0 or later, which contain the fix. Additionally, configure the new global configuration flag js.interpretation.enabled to control the interpretation of JavaScript expressions in the affected admin-only APIs, thereby reducing the risk of code injection.
