Arbitrary Code Execution

confire is a simple app configuration scheme using YAML and class based defaults.

Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. An exploitable vulnerability exists in the YAML parsing functionality in config.py in Confire 0.2.0. Due to the user-specific configuration being loaded from "/.confire.yaml" using the yaml.load function, a YAML parser can execute arbitrary Python commands resulting in command execution. An attacker can insert Python into loaded YAML to trigger this vulnerability.

How to fix Arbitrary Code Execution?

The fix was pushed into the master branch but not yet published.
