Arbitrary file read via log-server path traversal
Published Oct 28, 2022 · Updated May 7, 2025
Path traversal in the log server in Apache DolphinScheduler before 2.0.6 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via crafted paths. LoggerRequestProcessor passed command-supplied paths directly to whole-file, partial-file, and byte-read routines without validating that they remained within the log directory. The log server enforces no authentication; exploitation requires network reachability to that service and exposes only files readable by its process account.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
