Improper String/Integer Input Validation Leads to the Crashing of Site in pyload/pyload

Valid

Reported on

Jan 5th 2023

Description

If you give the string input in the Start/End time field, then the application will stop working.

Proof of Concept

  1. Go to "Settings->General-Reconnection"
  2. Change activated to "on"
  3. On every input fields place any string for example put: "test"
  4. Click on save and refresh
  5. The application will crash

Fix: rm ~/.pyload/settings/pyload.cfg or editing pyload.cfg.

Impact

We can crash the application. Changing it with CSRF could lead to leveraging more paths to launch this attack.
