Authenticated arbitrary file deletion via stored traversal
Published Aug 31, 2026 · Updated Aug 31, 2026
Path traversal in GEOFlow 2.0 through 2.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to delete PHP-writable files via crafted image metadata. The image-library cleanup reads a stored file_path value, joins non-storage paths to the application base path without canonicalization or an allowlist, and passes the result to unlink(). A regular administrator must first store the path through the materials API and then trigger library deletion; impact is limited to files writable by PHP.
