CVE-2025-60021
CriticalSummary
Remote command injection vulnerability in heap profiler builtin service in Apache bRPC (all versions < 1.15.0) on all platforms allows attacker to inject remote command. Root Cause: The bRPC heap profiler built-in service (/pprof/heap) does not validate the user-provided extra_options parameter and executes it as a command-line argument. Attackers can execute remote commands using the extra_options parameter. Affected scenarios: Use the built-in bRPC heap profiler service to perform jemalloc memory profiling. How to Fix: we provide two methods, you can choose one of them: 1. Upgrade bRPC to version 1.15.0. 2. Apply this patch ( https://github.com/apache/brpc/pull/3101 ) manually.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can execute arbitrary commands on the server, potentially leading to full system compromise and breach of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data.
Recommendation
Upgrade Apache bRPC to version 1.15.0 or apply the patch available at https://github.com/apache/brpc/pull/3101.
