Vulnerability from github
7.1 (High) - CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
A path traversal vulnerability accessible via MediaController's download_private_file method allows authenticated users to download any file on the web server Camaleon CMS is running on (depending on the file permissions).
In the download_private_file method: ```ruby def download_private_file cama_uploader.enable_private_mode!
file = cama_uploader.fetch_file("private/#{params[:file]}")
send_file file, disposition: 'inline'
end
The file parameter is passed to the [fetch_file](https://github.com/owen2345/camaleon-cms/blob/feccb96e542319ed608acd3a16fa5d92f13ede67/app/uploaders/camaleon_cms_local_uploader.rb#L27) method of the CamaleonCmsLocalUploader class (when files are uploaded locally):ruby
def fetch_file(file_name)
raise ActionController::RoutingError, 'File not found' unless file_exists?(file_name)
file_name end ``` If the file exists it's passed back to the download_private_file method where the file is sent to the user via send_file.
Proof of concept An authenticated user can download the /etc/passwd file by visiting an URL such as:
https:///admin/media/download_private_file?file=../../../../../../etc/passwd Impact This issue may lead to Information Disclosure.
Remediation Normalize file paths constructed from untrusted user input before using them and check that the resulting path is inside the targeted directory. Additionally, do not allow character sequences such as .. in untrusted input that is used to build paths.
