CWE-95

• CWE ID
• 95

• CWE Name
• Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code ('Eval Injection')

• CWE Abstraction
• Variant

• CWE structure
• Simple

• CWE Status

The software receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes code syntax before using the input in a dynamic evaluation call (e.g. "eval").

This may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, or at least modify what code can be executed.
