Risk Level: HIGHCOMMAND_EXECUTIONREMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION
Full Analysis
- COMMAND_EXECUTION (HIGH): The script
scripts/validate_module.pycontains a critical security flaw in its manifest parsing logic. - Evidence: Inside
validate_manifest(module_path), the code reads the content of__manifest__.pyand executes it usingeval(content). - Risk: This allows any Python code embedded in a manifest file to be executed with the full privileges of the user running the validation script. A malicious Odoo module could include system commands (e.g.,
__import__('os').system('rm -rf /')) within its manifest that would trigger during the validation process. - Remediation: Replace
eval()withast.literal_eval()to safely parse Python literals without executing arbitrary code. - REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION (HIGH): Because the validation script is designed to be run on arbitrary module paths provided by the user, it serves as a vector for executing untrusted code from external sources. If an attacker tricks a developer into 'validating' a malicious module, they can achieve persistent access or data exfiltration from the developer's environment.
