Arbitrary file deletion via unfiltered template path
Published Feb 22, 2024 · Updated Aug 19, 2024
Path traversal in CmsEasy 7.7.7.9 allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to delete arbitrary server files. The editcategorytemplate_action function uses an unfiltered module_name value containing ../ segments to construct a template-cache deletion path. Administrator backend access is required, and deletion is limited to files reachable under the web process's filesystem permissions.
