Unauthenticated file disclosure via unchecked path traversal
Published May 3, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Path traversal in LG SuperSign Media Editor 3.11.3_20171108 allows remote attackers to read sensitive files without authentication. The getSubFolderList method uses a user-supplied path in file operations without first restricting traversal outside the intended directory. Network access to the application's service is sufficient, and successful requests disclose files readable by the process running as SYSTEM.
