CVE-2024-3429Network attack vector

Arbitrary file read via backslash traversal

Published Jun 6, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Path traversal in ParisNeo LoLLMS before 9.6 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files through crafted Windows-style paths. The sanitize_path_from_endpoint and sanitize_path functions in lollms_core/lollms/security.py fail to reject backslashes in untrusted paths, so Windows resolves them outside the intended directory. An unauthenticated network request to a file-handling endpoint is sufficient; exposed files are limited to those readable by the service account, and bulk inclusion can exhaust resources.
