CVE-2022-28478

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SeedDMS versions 5.1.24 and 6.0.17

Description The issue arises from the "Remove file" functionality inside the "Log files management" menu, which does not properly sanitize user input. This allows attackers with admin privileges to delete arbitrary files on the remote system. The problem is related to a Directory Traversal issue.

Recommendations For SeedDMS version 5.1.24, update to a version that fixes the Directory Traversal issue in the "Remove file" functionality. For SeedDMS version 6.0.17, update to a version that fixes the Directory Traversal issue in the "Remove file" functionality. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "Log files management" menu to minimize the risk of exploitation.
