Arbitrary file write via absolute upload path
Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Mar 20, 2025
Path traversal in the DB-GPT 0.6.0 RAG-knowledge endpoint allows remote attackers to write arbitrary server files via uploads. The endpoint passes attacker-controlled doc_file.filename data to os.path.join, where an absolute path replaces the intended upload directory before the file is saved. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the write can overwrite server files or add SSH authorized-key entries.
