Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2024-4890 is a blind SQL injection vulnerability in berriai/litellm version 1.27.14. The vulnerability is present in the '/team/update' endpoint, where the 'user_id' parameter is improperly sanitized before being used in a raw SQL query for user deletion. This allows attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands via the 'user_id' parameter.

This repository is a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2024-4890, a privilege escalation vulnerability in the 'needrestart' utility on Linux (version 3.8+). The exploit leverages insecure handling of the PYTHONPATH environment variable by needrestart when run with sudo. The attacker prepares a malicious shared object (__init__.so, compiled from lib.c) and places it in a fake importlib directory structure under /tmp/malicious. A bait Python script (e.py) is run with PYTHONPATH set to this directory, and a shell script (runner.sh) automates the setup. When needrestart is triggered with sudo, it scans the bait process, loads the attacker's shared object as root, and executes the payload. The payload creates a SUID root shell at /tmp/poc and adds a sudoers rule for persistence. The repository contains three main code files: lib.c (payload), main.py (minimal bait loop), and runner.sh (automation script). The exploit is operational and provides reliable root access on vulnerable systems.
