NASA Singledop version v1.0 contains a CWE-502 vulnerability in NASA Singledop library (Weather data) that can result in remote code execution. This attack appear to be exploitable via Victim opening a specially crafted radar data file. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in v1.1.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Singledop Nasa 1.0 (including) 1.0 (including)

Potential Mitigations

  • Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
  • An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
