Arbitrary file deletion via unchecked DELETE path
Published Dec 8, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Path traversal in EverShop before 1.0.0-rc.8 allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary filesystem files through the API. The api/files DELETE handler passes a user-controlled path to unlinkSync in deleteFile.js without validating that the resolved path remains in the intended directory. An authenticated request can therefore remove files outside the upload area, corrupt application data, or interrupt the service; the technical record does not support information disclosure.
