CVE-2023-31143: Mage terminal user authentication not working properly

CriticalCVSS 9.8 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 39/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.65% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 51.9% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: mage-ai (PyPI) 0.8.72.
  • Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.9, NVD 9.8.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to mage-ai (PyPI) 0.8.72 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

mage-ai is an open-source data pipeline tool for transforming and integrating data. Those who use Mage starting in version 0.8.34 and prior to 0.8.72 with user authentication enabled may be affected by a vulnerability. The terminal could be accessed by users who are not signed in or do not have editor permissions. Version 0.8.72 contains a fix for this issue.
