Craft CMS is a content management system (CMS). From version 4.0.0-RC1 to before version 4.17.5 and from version 5.0.0-RC1 to before version 5.9.11, the AssetsController->replaceFile() method has a targetFilename body parameter that is used unsanitized in a deleteFile() call before Assets::prepareAssetName() is applied on save. This allows an authenticated user with replaceFiles permission to delete arbitrary files within the same filesystem root by injecting ../ path traversal sequences into the filename. This could allow an authenticated user with replaceFiles permission on one volume to delete files in other folders/volumes that share the same filesystem root. This only affects local filesystems. This issue has been patched in versions 4.17.5 and 5.9.11.

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in Erlang OTP ssh (ssh_sftpd module) allows an authenticated SFTP user to modify file attributes outside the configured chroot directory. The SFTP daemon (ssh_sftpd) stores the raw, user-supplied path in file handles instead of the chroot-resolved path. When SSH_FXP_FSETSTAT is issued on such a handle, file attributes (permissions, ownership, timestamps) are modified on the real filesystem path, bypassing the root directory boundary entirely. Any authenticated SFTP user on a server configured with the root option can modify file attributes of files outside the intended chroot boundary. The prerequisite is that a target file must exist on the real filesystem at the same relative path. Note that this vulnerability only allows modification of file attributes; file contents cannot be read or altered through this attack vector. If the SSH daemon runs as root, this enables direct privilege escalation: an attacker can set the setuid bit on any binary, change ownership of sensitive files, or make system configuration world-writable. This vulnerability is associated with program files lib/ssh/src/ssh_sftpd.erl and program routines ssh_sftpd:do_open/4 and ssh_sftpd:handle_op/4. This issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 until OTP 28.4.3, 27.3.4.11, and 26.2.5.20 corresponding to ssh from 3.01 until 5.5.3, 5.2.11.7, and 5.1.4.15.

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.

Directory Traversal vulnerability exists in FusionPBX 4.5.7, which allows a remote malicious user to create folders via the folder variale to app\edit\foldernew.php.

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability was discovered via an HTTP API on Western Digital My Cloud Home; My Cloud Home Duo; and SanDisk ibi devices that could allow an attacker to abuse certain parameters to point to random locations on the file system. This could also allow the attacker to initiate the installation of custom packages at these locations. This can only be exploited once the attacker has been authenticated to the device. This issue affects: Western Digital My Cloud Home and My Cloud Home Duo versions prior to 8.11.0-113 on Linux; SanDisk ibi versions prior to 8.11.0-113 on Linux.

The HT Mega – Absolute Addons For Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.1 via the 'save_block_css' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to create CSS files in any directory, and delete CSS files in any directory in a Windows environment.

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in diyhi bbs 6.8. Affected is the function Add of the file /src/main/java/cms/web/action/template/ForumManageAction.java of the component API. The manipulation of the argument dirName leads to path traversal. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Mattermost versions 10.8.x <= 10.8.3, 10.5.x <= 10.5.8, 10.10.x <= 10.10.0, 10.9.x <= 10.9.3 fail to sanitize file names which allows users with file upload permission to overwrite file attachment thumbnails via path traversal in file streaming APIs.

Jenkins Fortify Plugin 20.2.34 and earlier does not sanitize the appName and appVersion parameters of its Pipeline steps, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to write or overwrite .xml files on the Jenkins controller file system with content not controllable by the attacker.

IBM Sterling External Authentication Server 3.4.3.2, 6.0.2.0, and 6.0.3.0 is vulnerable to path traversals, due to not properly validating RESTAPI configuration data. An authorized user could import invalid data which could be used for an attack. IBM X-Force ID: 220144.

A vulnerability in the directory permissions of Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform a directory traversal attack on a limited set of restricted directories. The vulnerability is due to a flaw in the logic that governs directory permissions. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using capabilities that are not controlled by the role-based access control (RBAC) mechanisms of the software. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite files on an affected device.

An Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in the Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories Real-Time Automation Controller (SEL RTAC) Web Interface could allow a remote authenticated attacker to create folders in arbitrary paths of the file system. See SEL Service Bulletin dated 2022-11-15 for more details.

Before importing a project into Vuforia, a user could modify the “resourceDirectory” attribute in the appConfig.json file to be a different path.

SharpCompress is a fully managed C# library to deal with many compression types and formats. Versions prior to 0.29.0 are vulnerable to partial path traversal. SharpCompress recreates a hierarchy of directories under destinationDirectory if ExtractFullPath is set to true in options. In order to prevent extraction outside the destination directory the destinationFileName path is verified to begin with fullDestinationDirectoryPath. However, prior to version 0.29.0, it is not enforced that fullDestinationDirectoryPath ends with slash. If the destinationDirectory is not slash terminated like `/home/user/dir` it is possible to create a file with a name thats begins as the destination directory one level up from the directory, i.e. `/home/user/dir.sh`. Because of the file name and destination directory constraints the arbitrary file creation impact is limited and depends on the use case. This issue is fixed in SharpCompress version 0.29.0.

The Folders and Folders Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 3.0 in Folders and 3.0.2 in Folders Pro via the 'handle_folders_file_upload' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author access and above, to upload files to arbitrary locations on the server.
