Overview
litdb is an A literature database tool with GPT integration.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Eval Injection via the parse_schema_dsl function in the extract.py file, which unsafely uses the eval() function. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary Python code on the server by injecting a malicious Python expression into the user-controlled default_str parameter.
