Sensitive file disclosure via SQL API path traversal
Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Feb 17, 2025
Path traversal in Q-Free MAXTIME Suite 2.11.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive files via HTTP requests. The maxtime/api/sql/sql.lua handler uses an external path without properly neutralizing doubled traversal sequences, allowing resolution outside the intended directory. The management web application must be reachable with high-privileged credentials; exploitation exposes file contents without modifying files or interrupting service.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
