7.0 HIGH

Local vector with high complexity (AC:H) because two operator-introduced preconditions must co-occur; low privileges needed once conditions exist; no scope change beyond the process.

DescriptionCVE.org

stigmem-node 0.9.0a1 allows plugin signature enforcement to be disabled via a single configuration flag without a second explicit acknowledgment. If that setting is carried into an environment where plugin directories are writable by less-trusted users, unsigned (potentially malicious) plugin code could be loaded and executed, resulting in arbitrary code execution. Fixed in 0.9.0a2, which requires a second explicit acknowledgment to disable signature enforcement.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary code execution is possible in stigmem-node versions before 0.9.0a2 when a single configuration flag is used to disable plugin signature enforcement without a required second acknowledgment. Operators who carry this permissive setting from development into shared or production environments create a condition where any user with write access to the plugin directory can inject and execute unsigned, potentially malicious plugin code with the process's privileges. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify host running stigmem-node with disabled signature enforcement
Delivery
Confirm plugin directory is writable by local low-privilege user
Exploit
Craft unsigned malicious plugin payload
Execution
Write payload to writable plugin directory
Persist
Trigger stigmem-node plugin load cycle
Impact
Achieve arbitrary code execution as process owner

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two concurrent preconditions to be satisfied: first, an operator must have set the configuration flag that disables plugin signature enforcement - this is a non-default operator action, as the advisory implies enforcement is enabled by default; second, the plugin directory must be writable by users with lower trust than the process owner. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.3 with AV:L, PR:L, and AT:P reflects a nuanced risk profile: while the impact is high (full VC:H/VI:H/VA:H), exploitation is gated by two operator-introduced preconditions that would not exist in a correctly configured production deployment. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A developer sets the single disable-signature-enforcement flag during local testing and inadvertently promotes this configuration to a shared staging environment where the plugin directory is writable by other team members or service accounts. A less-trusted local user with write access to the plugin directory places an unsigned malicious plugin file in that directory; stigmem-node loads and executes it during its next plugin initialization cycle, granting the attacker arbitrary code execution under the process owner's privileges. …
Remediation Upgrade stigmem-node to version 0.9.0a2 or later using 'pip install --upgrade --pre stigmem-node'; if using the Stigmem meta-package, use 'pip install --upgrade --pre stigmem[node]'. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Inventory all stigmem-node deployments and audit configuration files for disabled plugin signature enforcement flags; disable any such settings immediately in production environments. …
