Sandbox Process Creation

[pixeebot[bot]]

This codemod sandboxes all instances of subprocess.run and subprocess.call to offer protection against attack.

Left unchecked, subprocess.run and subprocess.call can execute any arbitrary system command. If an attacker can control part of the strings used as program paths or arguments, they could execute arbitrary programs, install malware, and anything else they could do if they had a shell open on the application host.

Our change introduces a sandbox which protects the application:

  import subprocess
+ from security import safe_command
  ...
- subprocess.run("echo 'hi'", shell=True)
+ safe_command.run(subprocess.run, "echo 'hi'", shell=True)
  ...
- subprocess.call(["ls", "-l"])
+ safe_command.call(subprocess.call, ["ls", "-l"])

The default safe_command restrictions applied are the following:

• Prevent command chaining. Many exploits work by injecting command separators and causing the shell to interpret a second, malicious command. The safe_command functions attempt to parse the given command, and throw a SecurityException if multiple commands are present.
• Prevent arguments targeting sensitive files. There is little reason for custom code to target sensitive system files like /etc/passwd, so the sandbox prevents arguments that point to these files that may be targets for exfiltration.

There are more options for sandboxing if you are interested in locking down system commands even more.

Dependency Updates

This codemod relies on an external dependency. However, we were unable to automatically add the dependency to your project.

This library holds security tools for protecting Python API calls.

There are a number of places where Python project dependencies can be expressed, including setup.py, pyproject.toml, setup.cfg, and requirements.txt files. You may need to manually add this dependency to the proper location in your project.

Manual Installation

For setup.py:

 install_requires=[
+    "security==1.2.1",
 ],

For pyproject.toml (using setuptools):

 [project]
 dependencies = [
+    "security==1.2.1",
 ]

For setup.cfg:

 [options]
 install_requires =
+    security==1.2.1

For requirements.txt:

+security==1.2.1

For more information on adding dependencies to setuptools projects, see the setuptools documentation.

If you are using another build system, please refer to the documentation for that system to determine how to add dependencies.

Tips

### Chat There are 3 ways to chat with [CodeRabbit](https://coderabbit.ai): - Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example: - `I pushed a fix in commit .` - `Generate unit testing code for this file.` - `Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.` - Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag `@coderabbitai` in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples: - `@coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.` - `@coderabbitai modularize this function.` - PR comments: Tag `@coderabbitai` in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples: - `@coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.` - `@coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.` - `@coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.` - `@coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.` Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments. ### CodeRabbit Commands (invoked as PR comments) - `@coderabbitai pause` to pause the reviews on a PR. - `@coderabbitai resume` to resume the paused reviews. - `@coderabbitai review` to trigger a review. This is useful when automatic reviews are disabled for the repository. - `@coderabbitai resolve` resolve all the CodeRabbit review comments. - `@coderabbitai help` to get help. Additionally, you can add `@coderabbitai ignore` anywhere in the PR description to prevent this PR from being reviewed. ### CodeRabbit Configration File (`.coderabbit.yaml`) - You can programmatically configure CodeRabbit by adding a `.coderabbit.yaml` file to the root of your repository. - Please see the [configuration documentation](https://docs.coderabbit.ai/guides/configure-coderabbit) for more information. - If your editor has YAML language server enabled, you can add the path at the top of this file to enable auto-completion and validation: `# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/coderabbit-overrides.v2.json` ### Documentation and Community - Visit our [Documentation](https://coderabbit.ai/docs) for detailed information on how to use CodeRabbit. - Join our [Discord Community](https://discord.com/invite/GsXnASn26c) to get help, request features, and share feedback. - Follow us on [X/Twitter](https://twitter.com/coderabbitai) for updates and announcements.
