Authenticated arbitrary file read via unchecked download path
Published Jan 24, 2025 · Updated Jan 24, 2025
Path traversal in JoeyBling BootPlus commit 247d5f6c209be1a5cf10cd0fa18e1d8cc63cf55d allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files. The /file/download handler URL-decodes the name parameter, optionally resolves it with getRealPath, and opens the resulting File without enforcing directory containment. Low-privileged application access is required, and disclosure is limited to files readable by the BootPlus process.
