Discord-Recon Security Update

The NIST National Vulnerability Database has uncovered a significant vulnerability, CVE-2024-21663, within Discord-Recon, a Discord bot designed for bug bounty recon and automated scans.

This flaw exposes the bot to remote code execution, allowing attackers to execute shell commands in the server without requiring admin privileges.

The vulnerability, successfully addressed in version 0.0.8, posed a serious threat to the security of Discord-Recon users, emphasizing the need for swift action and updates to prevent potential malicious activities and unauthorized code execution.

Specifically, the prips command in the Discord Recon project faces a command injection vulnerability due to a lack of proper input sanitization.

This vulnerability enables potential attackers to execute arbitrary commands through user input, subsequently passed to the subprocess.

Popen function. If exploited, this flaw could result in the unauthorized execution of arbitrary commands, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or other malicious activities, depending on the context of the vulnerable code.

To mitigate the identified vulnerability, it is imperative to implement robust input validation and sanitization measures before passing user input to the subprocess Popen function.

Utilizing input validation libraries or sanitization techniques helps ensure that only safe and expected input is processed, reducing the risk of unauthorized code execution.

Additionally, adopting subprocess functions that allow passing arguments as a list, rather than a single string, is recommended to avoid shell injection vulnerabilities and bolster overall system security against potential threats.
