Title:JSONPath Plus 安全漏洞 (CVE-2024-21534)
Description:All versions of the package jsonpath-plus are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to improper input sanitization. An attacker can execute aribitrary code on the system by exploiting the unsafe default usage of vm in Node. **Note:** There were several attempts to fix it in versions [10.0.0-10.1.0](https://github.com/JSONPath-Plus/JSONPath/compare/v9.0.0...v10.1.0) but it could still be exploited using [different payloads](https://github.com/JSONPath-Plus/JSONPath/issues/226).

Proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for JSONPath-plus vulnerability

Readme

# CVE-2024-21534: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in `jsonpath-plus` (<=10.0.7)

## Summary

This repository contains a Proof of Concept (PoC) exploit for a critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in the `jsonpath-plus` package, affecting versions prior to 10.0.7. The issue stems from improper input sanitization, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging unsafe defaults in Node’s VM module. The vulnerability was published 2024-10-11 and has a **CVSS Score** of 9.8 (Critical).

**Note:** Although an attempt to mitigate this vulnerability was made in [version 10.0.0](https://github.com/JSONPath-Plus/JSONPath/commit/6b2f1b4c234292c75912b790bf7e2d7339d4ccd3), the flaw remains exploitable under certain payload variations as discussed in [issue #226](https://github.com/JSONPath-Plus/JSONPath/issues/226).

### Description

The vulnerability enables remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems due to the unsafe usage of the VM in Node.js. This vulnerability was initially addressed in version 10.0.0, but further investigation revealed it could still be exploited with specific payloads.
