CVE-2022-23512Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated arbitrary file deletion via path traversal

Published Dec 14, 2022 · Updated Apr 21, 2025

Path traversal in FIT2CLOUD MeterSphere before 2.4.1 allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary server files. ApiTestCaseController passes a user-controlled deletion ID to ApiTestCaseService::deleteBodyFiles, which appends it beneath BODY_FILE_DIR without rejecting traversal sequences before recursively deleting the resolved path. Any non-administrator account with a valid session and CSRF token can reach the endpoint, and deletion is limited to files writable by the MeterSphere service.
