CVE-2024-23752 — Gabrieleventuri Pandasai security vulnerability

Critical CVSS 9.8

GenerateSDFPipeline in synthetic_dataframe in PandasAI (aka pandas-ai) through 1.5.17 allows attackers to trigger the generation of arbitrary Python code that is executed by SDFCodeExecutor. An attacker can create a dataframe that provides an English language specification of this Python code. NOTE: the vendor previously attempted to restrict code execution in response to a separate issue, CVE-2023-39660.

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
