CVE-2024-36427Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated file access via VFS path traversal

Published May 29, 2024 · Updated Sep 27, 2024

Path traversal in TARGIT Decision Suite before 24.06.19002 allows remote authenticated users to read or write server files. The TARGIT Server VFS file-serving path accepts a crafted document-open request whose VFS path begins with //, causing access outside the VFS through local or SMB paths under the service account. An authenticated session is required; file reads expose server or report data, while writing and opening a crafted .xview file enables code execution with the service account's access.
