Details

Remote Code Execution in Red Discord Bot ### Impact A RCE exploit has been discovered in the Trivia module: this exploit allows Discord users with specifically crafted usernames to inject code into the Trivia module's leaderboard command. By abusing this exploit, it's possible to perform destructive actions and/or access sensitive information. ### Patches This critical exploit has been fixed on version 3.3.11. ### Workarounds Unloading the Trivia module with ``unload trivia`` can render this exploit not accessible. We still highly recommend updating to 3.3.11 to completely patch this issue. ### References https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot/pull/4175 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot](https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot) * Over on our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/red)
