Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
b2evolution version 6.8.4-stable
Description
The issue allows an attacker to bypass a filter rule using
../, enabling them to delete or read any files on the server, as well as determine whether a file exists.Recommendations
For b2evolution version 6.8.4-stable, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive files and directories until a patch is available. Avoid using the
../ sequence in file paths to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
