Unauthorized file disclosure via export URL traversal
Published Aug 26, 2025 · Updated Aug 27, 2025
Directory traversal in Mahara 23.04.8 and 24.04.4 allows remote attackers to download unauthorized files through an export URL. The export-download handler accepts a crafted file parameter and serves the referenced file without enforcing its access permission. No authentication or user interaction is required; the consequence is limited to reading files reachable through that handler.
