CWE-552
Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties
The product makes files or directories accessible to unauthorized actors, even though they should not be.
Three Bitnami Helm charts mount Kubernetes Secrets under a predictable path (/opt/bitnami/*/secrets) that is located within the web server document root. In affected versions, this can lead to unauthenticated access to sensitive credentials via HTTP/S. A remote attacker could retrieve these secrets by accessing specific URLs if the application is exposed externally. The issue affects deployments using the default value of usePasswordFiles=true, which mounts secrets as files into the container filesystem.
Gogs is an open source self-hosted Git service. Prior to version 0.13.3, it's still possible to delete files under the .git directory and achieve remote command execution due to an insufficient patch for CVE-2024-39931. Unprivileged user accounts can execute arbitrary commands on the Gogs instance with the privileges of the account specified by RUN_USER in the configuration. Allowing attackers to access and alter any users' code hosted on the same instance. This issue has been patched in version 0.13.3.
Gogs through 0.13.0 allows deletion of internal files.
The PHP to Page plugin for WordPress is vulnerable Local File Inclusion to Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 0.3 via the 'php-to-page' shortcode. This allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level permissions or above, to include local file and potentially execute code on the server. While subscribers may need to poison log files or otherwise get a file installed in order to achieve remote code execution, author and above users can upload files by default and achieve remote code execution easily.
This issue affects: Secomea GateManager Version 9.6.621421014 and all prior versions. Improper Limitation of a Pathname to restricted directory, allows logged in GateManager admin to delete system Files or Directories.
Opencast is an Open Source Lecture Capture & Video Management for Education. Opencast before version 9.10 or 10.6 allows references to local file URLs in ingested media packages, allowing attackers to include local files from Opencast's host machines and making them available via the web interface. Before Opencast 9.10 and 10.6, Opencast would open and include local files during ingests. Attackers could exploit this to include most local files the process has read access to, extracting secrets from the host machine. An attacker would need to have the privileges required to add new media to exploit this. But these are often widely given. The issue has been fixed in Opencast 10.6 and 11.0. You can mitigate this issue by narrowing down the read access Opencast has to files on the file system using UNIX permissions or mandatory access control systems like SELinux. This cannot prevent access to files Opencast needs to read though and we highly recommend updating.
An attacker may perform unauthenticated read and write operations on sensitive filesystem areas via the AppEngine Fileaccess over HTTP due to improper access restrictions. A critical filesystem directory was unintentionally exposed through the HTTP-based file access feature, allowing access without authentication. This includes device parameter files, enabling an attacker to read and modify application settings, including customer-defined passwords. Additionally, exposure of the custom application directory may allow execution of arbitrary Lua code within the sandboxed AppEngine environment.
A directory traversal vulnerability in Hewlett Packard Enterprise Insight Remote Support may allow remote code execution.
Missing Authentication, Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties, Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability in Talya Informatics Elektraweb allows Authentication Bypass. This issue affects Elektraweb: before v17.0.68.
The Shariff Wrapper plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 4.6.13 via the shariff3uu_fetch_sharecounts function. This allows 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.
iTop is an IT service management platform. Files from the `env-production` folder can be retrieved even though they should have restricted access. Hopefully, there is no sensitive files stored in that folder natively, but there could be from a third-party module. The `pages/exec.php` script as been fixed to limit execution of PHP files only. Other file types won't be retrieved and exposed. The vulnerability is fixed in 2.7.10, 3.0.4, 3.1.1, and 3.2.0.
The "Rich Filemanager" feature of Artica Proxy provides a web-based interface for file management capabilities. When the feature is enabled, it does not require authentication by default, and runs as the root user.
Services that are running and bound to the loopback interface on the Artica Proxy are accessible through the proxy service. In particular, the "tailon" service is running, running as the root user, is bound to the loopback interface, and is listening on TCP port 7050. Security issues associated with exposing this network service are documented at gvalkov's 'tailon' GitHub repo. Using the tailon service, the contents of any file on the Artica Proxy can be viewed.
An attacker can manipulate file upload params to enable paths traversal and under some circumstances this can lead to uploading a malicious file which can be used to perform Remote Code Execution. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions Struts 2.5.33 or Struts 6.3.0.2 or greater to fix this issue.
laravel-s 3.7.35 is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion via /src/Illuminate/Laravel.php.
This affects the package cesanta/mongoose before 7.6. The unsafe handling of file names during upload using mg_http_upload() method may enable attackers to write files to arbitrary locations outside the designated target folder.
A vulnerability in the implementation of an internal file management service for Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches and Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in standalone NX-OS mode that are running Cisco NX-OS Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to create, delete, or overwrite arbitrary files with root privileges on the device. This vulnerability exists because TCP port 9075 is incorrectly configured to listen and respond to external connection requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted TCP packets to an IP address that is configured on a local interface on TCP port 9075. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to create, delete, or overwrite arbitrary files, including sensitive files that are related to the device configuration. For example, the attacker could add a user account without the device administrator knowing.
An improper access control vulnerability was identified in the GitHub Enterprise Server API that allowed an organization member to escalate permissions and gain access to unauthorized repositories within an organization. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 2.21 and was fixed in 2.20.9, 2.19.15, and 2.18.20. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.
An issue was discovered in Gazie 7.32. A successful installation does not remove or block (or in any other way prevent use of) its own file /setup/install/setup.php, meaning that anyone can request it without authentication. This file allows arbitrary PHP file inclusion via a hidden_req POST parameter.
Incorrect access control in the web interface in Ruckus Wireless Unleashed through 200.7.10.102.64 allows remote credential fetch via an unauthenticated HTTP request involving a symlink with /tmp and web/user/wps_tool_cache.
