Authenticated arbitrary file write via unchecked path parameters
Published Feb 26, 2020 · Updated Aug 5, 2024
Arbitrary file write in Selesta Visual Access Manager 4.15.0 through 4.29 allows remote authenticated users to write files via its web interface. The /common/vam_editXml.php page accepts a filename, destination path, extension, and content without validating any of them before creating the requested file. Valid VAM credentials are required; attacker-controlled paths, extensions, and contents permit unrestricted filesystem modification through the application.
