Authenticated directory deletion via stored cluster name
Published Aug 14, 2026 · Updated Aug 14, 2026
Path traversal in DTStack Taier 1.4.0 allows remote authenticated users to delete server directories through a crafted cluster name. The cluster-creation flow stores clusterName without path validation, then getLocalKerberosPath concatenates it beneath the temporary root and FileUtils.deleteDirectory recursively deletes the resolved path. Cluster and component management access is required, and deletion is limited to paths writable by the Taier JVM account.
