Description
Python StateMachine versions 3.0.0 before 3.2.0 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying malicious SCXML documents containing crafted `<data expr="...">` attributes evaluated unsafely. The SCXMLProcessor passes attacker-controlled expression strings through a call chain ending in Python's built-in eval() without sandboxing, enabling arbitrary code execution in the context of the hosting process.
Public exploit
An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. 2 references of the record are tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
