Title
FileRise improper ownership/permission validation allowed cross-tenant file operations
Summary
FileRise is a self-hosted web-based file manager with multi-file upload, editing, and batch operations. Prior to version 1.4.0, a business logic flaw in FileRise’s file/folder handling allows low-privilege users to perform unauthorized operations (view/delete/modify) on files created by other users. The root cause was inferring ownership/visibility from folder names (e.g., a folder named after a username) and missing server-side authorization/ownership checks across file operation endpoints. This amounted to an IDOR pattern: an attacker could operate on resources identified only by predictable names. This issue has been patched in version 1.4.0 and further hardened in version 1.5.0. A workaround for this issue involves restricting non-admin users to read-only or disable delete/rename APIs server-side, avoid creating top-level folders named after other usernames, and adding server-side checks that verify ownership before delete/rename/move.

La causa ra\u00edz fue inferir la propiedad/visibilidad de los nombres de las carpetas (por ejemplo, una carpeta nombrada como un nombre de usuario) y la falta de comprobaciones de autorizaci\u00f3n/propiedad del lado del servidor en todos los puntos finales de operaci\u00f3n de archivos. Esto equival\u00eda a un patr\u00f3n IDOR: un atacante podr\u00eda operar en recursos identificados solo por nombres predecibles. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versi\u00f3n 1.4.0 y endurecido a\u00fan m\u00e1s en la versi\u00f3n 1.5.0. Una soluci\u00f3n alternativa para este problema implica restringir a los usuarios no administradores a solo lectura o deshabilitar las API de eliminar/renombrar del lado del servidor, evitar crear carpetas de nivel superior nombradas como otros nombres de usuario, y a\u00f1adir comprobaciones del lado del servidor que verifiquen la propiedad antes de eliminar/renombrar/mover."

Prior to version 1.4.0, a business logic flaw in FileRise\u2019s file/folder handling allows low-privilege users to perform unauthorized operations (view/delete/modify) on files created by other users. The root cause was inferring ownership/visibility from folder names (e.g., a folder named after a username) and missing server-side authorization/ownership checks across file operation endpoints. This amounted to an IDOR pattern: an attacker could operate on resources identified only by predictable names. This issue has been patched in version 1.4.0 and further hardened in version 1.5.0. A workaround for this issue involves restricting non-admin users to read-only or disable delete/rename APIs server-side, avoid creating top-level folders named after other usernames, and adding server-side checks that verify ownership before delete/rename/move."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
