Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

An issue was discovered in za-internet C-MOR Video Surveillance 5.2401. Due to improper user input validation, it is possible to download arbitrary files from the C-MOR system via a path traversal attack. It was found out that different functionalities are vulnerable to path traversal attacks, due to insufficient user input validation. For instance, the download functionality for backups provided by the script download-bkf.pml is vulnerable to a path traversal attack via the parameter bkf. This enables an authenticated user to download arbitrary files as Linux user www-data from the C-MOR system. Another path traversal attack is in the script show-movies.pml, which can be exploited via the parameter cam.Show less

IBM webMethods Integration 10.15 could allow an authenticated user to traverse directories on the system. An attacker could send a specially crafted URL request containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) to view arbitrary files on the system.Show less

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in ABCD ABCD2 up to 2.2.0-beta-1. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /abcd/opac/php/otros_sitios.php. The manipulation of the argument sitio leads to path traversal. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.Show less

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in ABCD ABCD2 up to 2.2.0-beta-1. This affects an unknown part of the file /common/show_image.php. The manipulation of the argument image leads to path traversal: '../filedir'. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.Show less

The The Ultimate WordPress Toolkit – WP Extended plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.8 via the download_file_ajax function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.Show less

The WP Job Portal – A Complete Recruitment System for Company or Job Board website plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion, Arbitrary Settings Update, and User Creation in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.6 via several functions called by the 'checkFormRequest' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included. Attackers can also update arbitrary settings and create user accounts even when registration is disabled, leading to user creation with a default role of Administrator.Show less

Hoverfly is a lightweight service virtualization/ API simulation / API mocking tool for developers and testers. The `/api/v2/simulation` POST handler allows users to create new simulation views from the contents of a user-specified file. This feature can be abused by an attacker to read arbitrary files from the Hoverfly server. Note that, although the code prevents absolute paths from being specified, an attacker can escape out of the `hf.Cfg.ResponsesBodyFilesPath` base path by using `../` segments and reach any arbitrary files. This issue was found using the Uncontrolled data used in path expression CodeQL query for python. Users are advised to make sure the final path (`filepath.Join(hf.Cfg.ResponsesBodyFilesPath, filePath)`) is contained within the expected base path (`filepath.Join(hf.Cfg.ResponsesBodyFilesPath, "/")`). This issue is also tracked as GHSL-2023-274.Show less

Overleaf is a web-based collaborative LaTeX editor. Overleaf Community Edition and Server Pro prior to version 5.0.7 (or 4.2.7 for the 4.x series) contain a vulnerability that allows an arbitrary language parameter in client spelling requests to be passed to the `aspell` executable running on the server. This causes `aspell` to attempt to load a dictionary file with an arbitrary filename. File access is limited to the scope of the overleaf server. The problem is patched in versions 5.0.7 and 4.2.7. Previous versions can be upgraded using the Overleaf toolkit `bin/upgrade` command. Users unable to upgrade may block POST requests to `/spelling/check` via a Web Application Firewall will prevent access to the vulnerable spell check feature. However, upgrading is advised.Show less

audiobookshelf is a self-hosted audiobook and podcast server. A non-admin user is not allowed to create libraries (or access only the ones they have permission to). However, the `LibraryController` is missing the check for admin user and thus allows a path traversal issue. Allowing non-admin users to write to any directory in the system can be seen as a form of path traversal. However, since it can be restricted to only admin permissions, fixing this is relatively simple and falls more into the realm of Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). This issue has been addressed in release version 2.13.0. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.Show less

actions/artifact is the GitHub ToolKit for developing GitHub Actions. Versions of `actions/artifact` on the 2.x branch before 2.1.2 are vulnerable to arbitrary file write when using `downloadArtifactInternal`, `downloadArtifactPublic`, or `streamExtractExternal` for extracting a specifically crafted artifact that contains path traversal filenames. Users are advised to upgrade to version 2.1.2 or higher. There are no known workarounds for this issue.Show less

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in Sk. Abul Hasan Animated Number Counters allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects Animated Number Counters: from n/a through 1.9.Show less

A vulnerability has been found in jpress up to 5.1.1 and classified as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file /admin/template/edit of the component Template Module Handler. The manipulation leads to path traversal. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.Show less

In WS_FTP Server versions before 8.8.8 (2022.0.8), an Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in the Web Transfer Module allows File Discovery, Probe System Files, User-Controlled Filename, Path Traversal.   An authenticated file download flaw has been identified where a user can craft an API call that allows them to download a file from an arbitrary folder on the drive where that user host's root folder is located (by default this is C:)Show less

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the Xiaomi File Manager application product(international version). The vulnerability is caused by unfiltered special characters and can be exploited by attackers to overwrite and execute code in the file.Show less
