CVE-2024-27279Network attack vector

Arbitrary file disclosure via Ping path traversal

Published Mar 12, 2024 · Updated Oct 31, 2024

Directory traversal in Appleple a-blog cms allows remote authenticated users with editor access to read arbitrary server files. The Ping Weblog Update handler in php/ACMS/POST/PingWeblogUpdate.php resolves supplied paths without restricting them to an intended directory. Editor-or-higher access is required; affected branches extend through 3.1.9, 3.0.30, 2.11.59, and 2.10.51, while 2.9 and earlier are also affected.
