Context and Purpose:

This PR automatically remediates a security vulnerability:

  • Description: Detected the use of eval(). eval() can be dangerous if used to evaluate dynamic content. If this content can be input from outside the program, this may be a code injection vulnerability. Ensure evaluated content is not definable by external sources.
  • Rule ID: python.lang.security.audit.eval-detected.eval-detected
  • Severity: HIGH
  • File: libs/python/agent/agent/loops/uitars.py
  • Lines Affected: 337 - 337

This change is necessary to protect the application from potential security risks associated with this vulnerability.

Solution Implemented:

The automated remediation process has applied the necessary changes to the affected code in libs/python/agent/agent/loops/uitars.py to resolve the identified issue.

Please review the changes to ensure they are correct and integrate as expected.

Hi @orbisai-sec,

Thank you for pointing this out. A few observations:

  1. We should never eval() an AI-generated string outside of a sandbox.
  2. eval() is actually used six times in this file. (Your PR addresses one instance.)

If you replace the remaining instances of eval() with ast.literal_eval() in this file, I can merge this PR.

Note: A more thorough solution would be to use regular expressions. For example, here's my implementation in open-computer-user:

match = re.search(r"<\|box_start\|>(.*?)<\|box_end\|>", bbox_response)
inner_text = match.group(1) if match else bbox_response
numbers = [float(num) for num in re.findall(r"\d+\.\d+|\d+", inner_text)]
