Summary
The SimpleEval library prior to version 1.0.5 has a vulnerability that allows dangerous modules and functions to leak into the sandbox. An attacker can access forbidden objects through attributes of passed names or by passing dangerous functions as callbacks to allowed functions.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves bypassing sandbox restrictions and executing unauthorized code, potentially leading to system integrity compromise or data leakage.
Recommendation
Immediately update the SimpleEval library to version 1.0.5 or later, which includes a fix for this vulnerability.
Original NVD description (English source)
SimpleEval is a library for adding evaluatable expressions into python projects. Prior to 1.0.5, objects (including modules) can leak dangerous modules through to direct access inside the sandbox. If the objects you've passed in as names to SimpleEval have modules or other disallowed / dangerous objects available as attrs. Additionally, dangerous functions or modules could be accessed by passing them as callbacks to other safe functions to call. The latest version 1.0.5 has this issue fixed. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.0.5.
