Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

### Impact Users hosting D-Tale publicly can be vulnerable to remote code execution allowing attackers to run malicious code on the server. ### Patches Users should upgrade to version 3.16.1 where the `update-settings` endpoint blocks the ability for users to update the `enable_custom_filters` flag. You can find out more information on how to turn that flag on [here](https://github.com/man-group/dtale#custom-filter) ### Workarounds The only workaround for versions earlier than 3.16.1 is to only host D-Tale to trusted users. ### References See "Custom Filter" [documentation](https://github.com/man-group/dtale#custom-filter)
