CVE-2024-2360Path Traversal leading to Remote Code Execution in parisneo/lollms-webui
Critical 9.8
In plain English
A critical-severity security flaw in parisneo/lollms-webui from parisneo. Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 1.9% (higher than 79% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
parisneo/lollms-webui is vulnerable to path traversal attacks that can lead to remote code execution due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input in the 'Database path' and 'PDF LaTeX path' settings. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by manipulating these settings to execute arbitrary code on the targeted server. The issue affects the latest version of the software. The vulnerability stems from the application's handling of the 'discussion_db_name' and 'pdf_latex_path' parameters, which do not properly validate file paths, allowing for directory traversal. This vulnerability can also lead to further file exposure and other attack vectors by manipulating the 'discussion_db_name' parameter.
