CVE-2024-28171Network attack vector

Authenticated arbitrary file overwrite via path traversal

Published Mar 21, 2024 · Updated Aug 28, 2024

Path traversal in Delta Electronics DIAEnergie before 1.10.00.005 allows remote authenticated users to overwrite arbitrary files. The file-name handling accepts traversal sequences and uses the resulting path for writes outside the intended directory, replacing an existing file when names collide. Low-privileged access is required; exploitation can corrupt application or host data and interrupt service, but no file-read capability is reported.
