CVE-2025-48957Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Sensitive file disclosure via unchecked filename traversal

Published Jun 2, 2025 · Updated Jun 23, 2025

Path traversal in AstrBot 3.4.4 through 3.5.12 allows remote attackers to read sensitive server files via the dashboard file API. The unauthenticated /api/chat/get_file handler joins a supplied filename to the image directory and opens the resulting path without removing traversal sequences or verifying containment. A reachable enabled dashboard is required, and crafted ../ segments can expose LLM API keys, usernames, and password hashes from data/cmd_config.json.
