Unauthenticated file read via unrestricted src URI
Published Feb 27, 2025 · Updated Feb 27, 2025
Path traversal in zyx0814 FilePress 2.1.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary server files through the textviewer endpoint. The route accepts the src parameter as a file URI and reads it without restricting the scheme or confining the resolved path to an allowed directory. No authentication or user interaction is required, and disclosure is limited to files readable by the web-server process.
