Arbitrary file write via unchecked upload filename
Published Jan 13, 2024 · Updated Jun 3, 2025
Unrestricted file upload in ZhongFuCheng3y Austin 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to write files through the material upload interface. MaterialController.getFile writes multipart content to an attacker-supplied filename without validating or constraining the destination path. Exploitation requires adjacent-network access, a low-privileged account, and Austin process permission to write the target; writable scheduled-task files enable command execution.
