Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

CVE-2024-49400

High
7.6/10

Summary

The package github.com/facebookincubator/tacquito versions prior to 0.0.0-20241011192817-07b49d1358e6 were not properly performing regex matches on authorized commands and arguments. The configured allowed commands/arguments were intended to require a match on the entire string, but instead, they only enforced a match on a substring. That could have potentially allowed unauthorized commands to be executed.
