Unauthenticated file write via absolute upload paths
Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Oct 15, 2025
Absolute path traversal in DB-GPT 0.6.0 allows remote attackers to write arbitrary files through the knowledge upload API. The document_upload handler passed doc_file.filename directly to os.path.join and shutil.move, allowing an absolute name to replace the intended upload root. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful requests can overwrite files writable by the server process.
