OpenZeppelin Contracts Wizard has Code Injection in Generated Hardhat and Foundry Tests via Unsanitized opts.name / opts.uri

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

OpenZeppelin Contracts Wizard is a web application to interactively build a contract out of components from OpenZeppelin Contracts. Versions prior to 0.10.9 generate a Hardhat test file (`test/test.ts`) by interpolating user-supplied `opts.name` (ERC20/ERC721) and `opts.uri` (ERC1155) directly into TypeScript string literals at `zip-hardhat.ts:48` and `:50` without any JavaScript string escaping. No authentication is required: an attacker crafts a URL such as `https[:]//wizard[.]openzeppelin[.]com/#/erc20?name=");require("child_process").execSync("...");("` and shares it with a developer. When the victim downloads the resulting zip archive and runs `npx hardhat test`, the injected Node.js code executes with the developer's local OS privileges. Version 0.10.9 fixes the issue.

## Summary The OpenZeppelin Contracts Wizard generated Hardhat (`test/test.ts`) and Foundry (`test/<Name>.t.sol`) example test files that interpolated user-supplied strings (`opts.name`, `opts.uri`) into the test source without escaping. A crafted input could produce a generated test file in which the input string broke out of its surrounding literal and was parsed as code, executing when a developer ran `npm test` or `forge test` on the downloaded project. ## Impact - **Users of the hosted Wizard at https://wizard.openzeppelin.com:** no action required. The site has been redeployed with the fix. - **Users of `@openzeppelin/wizard` via the documented public API:** not affected. The vulnerable functions (`zipHardhat`, `zipFoundry`) are not part of the package's documented public exports. - **Callers of `zipHardhat` / `zipFoundry` who forward externally-controlled strings into `opts.name` / `opts.uri`:** upgrade to `0.10.9`. ## Patches Fixed in `@openzeppelin/[email protected]`.
