CVE-2020-9325Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated file disclosure via unsanitized download path

Published Mar 18, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Path traversal in the download.aspx handler in Aquaforest TIFF Server 4.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary server files. The handler accepts the name parameter as a file path without authenticating the request or sanitizing the supplied value. Exposure requires network access to the TIFF Server web interface, and disclosure is limited to files readable by its process.
