@DryRunSecurity Does this PR contain any CWEs?

[dryrunsecurity]

🤖

I do not have access to the specific PR you are referring to. To determine if the PR contains any CWEs (Common Weakness Enumerations), a thorough code review and analysis should be conducted by a security team. They will be able to identify any potential CWEs and provide recommendations for remediation if necessary.

@DryRunSecurity Does the following code contain any CWEs:
"from flask import Flask, request, render_template_string

app = Flask(name)

@app.route('/')
def index():

Get user input from the query parameter "name"

user_input = request.args.get('name', 'World')

This line is vulnerable to XSS. It directly places user_input into the HTML.

return render_template_string('

Hello, ' + user_input + '!

')

if name == 'main':
app.run(debug=True)"

[dryrunsecurity]

🤖

Yes, the code contains a CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) vulnerability. Specifically, it is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. The user input obtained from the query parameter "name" is directly concatenated into the HTML response without proper sanitization or encoding. This allows an attacker to inject malicious code that will be executed by the victim's browser. To mitigate this vulnerability, the user input should be properly sanitized or encoded before being included in the HTML response.
