GHSA-w2pm-x38x-jp44 Dockerfile command injection via envs[*].name in bentofile.yaml (sibling fix-bypass of CVE-2026-33744 and CVE-2026-35043)
BentoML `envs[*].name` Dockerfile command injection — sibling of CVE-2026-33744 / CVE-2026-35043A malicious `bentofile.yaml` containing a newline-injected value in `envs[*].name` produces unquoted `RUN` directives in the BentoML-generated Dockerfile. When the victim runs `bentoml containerize` on the imported bento, those `RUN` directives execute on the host during `docker build`. Verified end-to-end on `bentoml==1.4.38`.Vulnerable code`src/bentoml/_internal/container/frontend/dockerfile/templates/base_v2.j2:71-73`:`env.value` is bash-quoted via the `bash_quote` filter, but **`env.name` is interpolated raw** with no escaping or newline filtering. The template is rendered by `_bentoml_impl/docker.generate_dockerfile` (the v2 SDK Docker generation path used by `bentoml containerize` for modern services).Sibling relationship to existing CVEsThe earlier patches addressed the same Dockerfile-command-injection class for a different bentofile field:**CVE-2026-33744 / GHSA-jfjg-vc52-wqvf** (2026-03-25): added `bash_quote` to `system_packages` interpolation in Dockerfile templates and `images.py`.**CVE-2026-35043 / GHSA-fgv4-6jr3-jgfw** (2026-04-02): added `shlex.quote` to `system_packages` in the cloud deployment path (`_internal/cloud/deployment.py:1648`).Both patches limit themselves to `system_packages`. The `envs[*].name` field is the same root-cause class (`bentofile.yaml` value flowing unquoted into a Dockerfile interpretation context) but was never included in the fix scope.ReproductionExpected:Each injected `RUN` line is a Dockerfile command that runs during `docker build`. With `$(whoami)` shell-substituted by Docker's RUN executor, the example payload exfiltrates the build host's username.Threat modelAttacker authors a malicious bento with a crafted `bentofile.yaml`.Attacker exports the bento (`.bento` or `.tar.gz`) and distributes (S3, HTTP, BentoCloud share, etc.).Victim imports with `bentoml import bento.tar`; no validation of `envs` content.Victim runs `bentoml containerize` to build the container image.BentoML renders the Dockerfile with the attacker's `envs` values, producing injected `RUN` lines.`docker build` (or BuildKit) executes the injected `RUN` commands on the build host, achieving RCE in the victim's build environment.The flow mirrors CVE-2026-33744 exactly, with `envs` substituted for `system_packages`.Suggested fixIn `base_v2.j2` lines 71-73, apply the `bash_quote` filter to `env.name` (and to the `=$VAR` reference in the `ENV` line, since the variable name itself is reused there):Better, since `env.name` is semantically a Dockerfile identifier, validate at the schema level: in `bentoml/_internal/bento/build_config.py:BentoEnvSchema`, add an `attr.validators.matches_re(r"^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*$")` to the `name` field so newline / shell-metacharacter values are rejected at config load.Affected versionsbentoml 1.4.38 (verified end-to-end)Likely all 1.x versions where `_bentoml_impl/docker.py` exists; the v2 SDK code path was added before the CVE-2026-33744 / CVE-2026-35043 patches and was not retroactively swept for siblings.DisclosureRequesting CVE assignment and GHSA publication.
