CVE-2024-2563Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated arbitrary file deletion via unchecked fileName

Published Mar 17, 2024 · Updated Aug 12, 2024

Path traversal in PandaXGO PandaX 20240310 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary files on the server. DeleteImage in apps/system/api/upload.go joins the fileName query value to the upload directory and passes the result to os.Remove without validating the resolved path. A valid X-TOKEN is required, and deletion is limited to files writable by the PandaX service account.
