Description

pyLoad is a free and open-source download manager written in Python. From version 0.4.20 to before version 0.5.0b3.dev97, the local_check decorator in pyLoad's ClickNLoad feature can be bypassed by any remote attacker through HTTP Host header spoofing. This allows unauthenticated remote users to access localhost-restricted endpoints, enabling them to inject arbitrary downloads, write files to the storage directory, and execute JavaScript code. This issue has been patched in version 0.5.0b3.dev97.

Affected configurations

• pyload pyload (<= 0.4.20) • pyload-ng project pyload-ng (>= 0.5.0a5.dev528 < 0.5.0b3.dev97)
