CVE-2024-11049Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated photo disclosure via forced browsing

Published Nov 10, 2024 · Updated Nov 14, 2024

Forced browsing in ZKTeco ZKBio Time 9.0.1 allows remote attackers to read protected photos through direct image-handler requests. The /auth_files/photo/ handler serves stored image files from directly requested URLs without enforcing the intended access restriction. No authentication or user interaction is required, but exploitation is high complexity and the documented consequence is limited to disclosure.
