Technical details

The /api/v1/chat/react-agent endpoint uses a mock get_user_from_headers function that grants admin role to all callers without authentication. Attackers can exploit the ReAct agent's unsandboxed code_interpreter and shell_interpreter tools to execute arbitrary Python or bash commands as root. This is a network-accessible, unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability with no preconditions beyond network access.
