CVE-2016-10573

baryton-saxophone is a module to install and launch Selenium Server for Mac, Linux and Windows. baryton-saxophone versions below 3.0.1 download binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested binary with an attacker controlled binary if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.

It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested binary with an attacker controlled binary if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.

Affected versions of `baryton-saxophone` insecurely download an executable over an unencrypted HTTP connection. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running `baryton-saxophone`. ## Recommendation Update to version 3.0.1 or later.

baryton-saxophone es un módulo para instalar y ejecutar Selenium Server para Mac, Linux y Windows. baryton-saxophone en versiones anteriores a la 3.0.1 descarga recursos binarios por HTTP, lo que lo deja vulnerable a ataques MITM. Podría ser posible provocar la ejecución remota de código (RCE) cambiando el binario solicitado por otro controlado por el atacante si éste está en la red o posicionado entre el usuario y el servidor remoto.
