Arbitrary file deletion via unvalidated path
Published Jul 7, 2025 · Updated Jul 7, 2025
Path traversal in Marvell QConvergeConsole 5.5.0.78 allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files without authentication. The deleteAppFile method passes a user-supplied path to file operations without validating that the resolved path remains in an allowed directory. A network-reachable installation is sufficient, and deletion runs with SYSTEM privileges, allowing service interruption or loss of host data.
