Overview

dtale is a Web Client for Visualizing Pandas Objects

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) via the run_query function due to improper sanitization of the query parameter. An attacker can execute arbitrary code on the server by sending malicious input.

Note:

This is only exploitable if "Custom Filter" input is turned on, which is the default option.

CVE-2024-8862 is a duplicate of this vulnerability.
