{"cve":"CVE-2024-47821","nvd":{"published":"2024-10-25T23:15:02.530","modified":"2026-06-17T07:57:48.903","status":"Analyzed","description":"pyLoad is a free and open-source Download Manager. The folder `/.pyload/scripts` has scripts which are run when certain actions are completed, for e.g. a download is finished. By downloading a executable file to a folder in /scripts and performing the respective action, remote code execution can be achieved in versions prior to 0.5.0b3.dev87. A file can be downloaded to such a folder by changing the download folder to a folder in `/scripts` path and using the `/flashgot` API to download the file. This vulnerability allows an attacker with access to change the settings on a pyload server to execute arbitrary code and completely compromise the system. Version 0.5.0b3.dev87 fixes this issue.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":2.3},"cwes":["CWE-78"],"references":["https://github.com/pyload/pyload/security/advisories/GHSA-w7hq-f2pj-c53g"],"products":["pyload:pyload"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:56:33.105311382+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-47821","score":0.00682,"percentile":0.52483,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-w7hq-f2pj-c53g","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-w7hq-f2pj-c53g","summary":"pyLoad vulnerable to remote code execution by download to /.pyload/scripts using /flashgot API","modified":"2026-06-08T19:15:12.488523943Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"pyload-ng","purl":"pkg:pypi/pyload-ng","ranges":["<0.5.0b3.dev87"],"fixed":["0.5.0b3.dev87"]}]},{"id":"PYSEC-2024-302","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/PYSEC-2024-302","summary":"","modified":"2026-05-21T15:00:28.414384626Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"pyload-ng","purl":"pkg:pypi/pyload-ng","ranges":["<=0.5.0"],"fixed":[]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
