CVE-2024-28847 is a critical vulnerability in OpenMetadata (prior to version 1.2.4) that allows remote code execution via Spring Expression Language (SpEL) injection. The vulnerability exists in the AlertUtil::validateExpression method, which is called during the processing of event subscription creation or update requests (PUT /api/v1/events/subscriptions). Due to improper validation and the order of authorization checks, user-supplied SpEL expressions are evaluated before authorization, enabling attackers to inject and execute arbitrary code on the server. The flaw is reachable by sending crafted requests to the affected API endpoint.

This repository contains a Go-based exploit for a memory leak vulnerability in MongoDB (likely CVE-2024-28847). The main file, 'mongobleed.go', implements the exploit logic. It crafts and sends custom MongoDB wire protocol messages (with zlib compression) to a specified MongoDB server, attempting to trigger a memory leak and extract arbitrary memory fragments from the server's process space. The exploit supports both targeted and scanning attacks, and can operate over plain TCP or SSL/TLS. Extracted memory fragments are analyzed for common secret patterns (such as passwords, tokens, and connection strings). The code is operational and can be used to test or exploit vulnerable MongoDB instances accessible over the network. The repository also includes Go module files ('go.mod' and 'go.sum') for dependency management.
