An issue in Harrison Chase langchain v.0.0.194 and before allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the from_math_prompt and from_colored_object_prompt functions.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
