Summary
H2O Vulnerable to Arbitrary File Overwrite via File Export
Details

In h2oai/h2o-3 version 3.46.0, the endpoint for exporting models does not restrict the export location, allowing an attacker to export a model to any file in the server's file structure, thereby overwriting it. This vulnerability can be exploited to overwrite any file on the target server with a trained model file, although the content of the overwrite is not controllable by the attacker.

Summary
compliance-trestle - jinja has an Arbitrary File Write via Path Traversal
Details

Relevant Products/Components:

  • trestle/core/commands/author/jinja.py
  • trestle author jinja

Detailed Description:

The -o/--output argument in trestle author jinja allows writing files outside the intended workspace.

The application does not properly validate:

  • ../
  • ..\
  • absolute paths

This allows arbitrary file write to attacker-controlled locations.

Vulnerable code:

output_file = trestle_root / r_output_file

An attacker can overwrite files such as:

  • .github/workflows/*.yml
  • .git/hooks/*
  • user writable config files

This can lead to CI/CD compromise or local code execution.


Steps To Reproduce:

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/oscal-compass/compliance-trestle.git
cd compliance-trestle
  1. Create template:
echo "hello" > template.j2
  1. Run:
trestle author jinja -i template.j2 -o "subdir\..\..\..\..\..\poc.txt"
  1. Observe:
dir E:\poc.txt

The file is written outside the repository workspace.


Browsers Verified In:

Not browser related.

Tested on:

  • Windows 11
  • Python 3.13

Supporting Material/References:

Affected file:

trestle/core/commands/author/jinja.py

Successfully verified:

  • directory traversal using ../
  • Windows traversal using ..\
  • arbitrary file write outside workspace

Access Vector Required for Exploitation:

Local


Vulnerability Exists in Default Configuration?:

Yes


Is the exploitation trivial or does it involve a multi-step process that may depend on user/victim interaction?:

Trivial. Single command execution.


Exploitation Requires Authentication?:

No


Under what privileges does the vulnerable service or component run?:

Runs with privileges of the user executing the trestle command.

Impact

An attacker can write files outside the intended workspace directory and overwrite sensitive files writable by the current user.

Possible impacts include:

  • overwriting .github/workflows/*.yml to execute attacker-controlled GitHub Actions workflows
  • overwriting .git/hooks/* for local code execution
  • modifying user configuration files such as .bashrc
  • tampering with repository files and generated compliance artifacts

In CI/CD environments, this may result in execution of attacker-controlled commands on build runners.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-06 21:30 – Updated: 2024-06-06 21:30
VLAI
Details

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the parisneo/lollms-webui application, specifically within the lollms_core/lollms/server/endpoints/lollms_binding_files_server.py and lollms_core/lollms/security.py files. Due to inadequate validation of file paths between Windows and Linux environments using Path(path).is_absolute(), attackers can exploit this flaw to read any file on the system. This issue affects the latest version of LoLLMs running on the Windows platform. The vulnerability is triggered when an attacker sends a specially crafted request to the /user_infos/{path:path} endpoint, allowing the reading of arbitrary files, as demonstrated with the win.ini file. The issue has been addressed in version 9.5 of the software.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-07-17 18:31 – Updated: 2024-07-17 18:31
VLAI
Details

A vulnerability in the content scanning and message filtering features of Cisco Secure Email Gateway could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the underlying operating system.

This vulnerability is due to improper handling of email attachments when file analysis and content filters are enabled. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending an email that contains a crafted attachment through an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to replace any file on the underlying file system. The attacker could then perform any of the following actions: add users with root privileges, modify the device configuration, execute arbitrary code, or cause a permanent denial of service (DoS) condition on the affected device.

Note: Manual intervention is required to recover from the DoS condition. Customers are advised to contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) to help recover a device in this condition.

Mitigation MIT-5.1
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

  • Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
  • When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
  • Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
  • When validating filenames, use stringent allowlists that limit the character set to be used. If feasible, only allow a single "." character in the filename to avoid weaknesses such as CWE-23, and exclude directory separators such as "/" to avoid CWE-36. Use a list of allowable file extensions, which will help to avoid CWE-434.
  • Do not rely exclusively on a filtering mechanism that removes potentially dangerous characters. This is equivalent to a denylist, which may be incomplete (CWE-184). For example, filtering "/" is insufficient protection if the filesystem also supports the use of "\" as a directory separator. Another possible error could occur when the filtering is applied in a way that still produces dangerous data (CWE-182). For example, if "../" sequences are removed from the ".../...//" string in a sequential fashion, two instances of "../" would be removed from the original string, but the remaining characters would still form the "../" string.
Mitigation MIT-20
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

Inputs should be decoded and canonicalized to the application's current internal representation before being validated (CWE-180). Make sure that the application does not decode the same input twice (CWE-174). Such errors could be used to bypass allowlist validation schemes by introducing dangerous inputs after they have been checked.

Mitigation MIT-29
Operation

Strategy: Firewall

Use an application firewall that can detect attacks against this weakness. It can be beneficial in cases in which the code cannot be fixed (because it is controlled by a third party), as an emergency prevention measure while more comprehensive software assurance measures are applied, or to provide defense in depth [REF-1481].

CAPEC-597: Absolute Path Traversal

An adversary with access to file system resources, either directly or via application logic, will use various file absolute paths and navigation mechanisms such as ".." to extend their range of access to inappropriate areas of the file system. The goal of the adversary is to access directories and files that are intended to be restricted from their access.
