Prior to version 2.3.0.0, the default implementation of `Validator.getValidDirectoryPath(String, String, File, boolean)` may incorrectly treat the tested input string as a child of the specified parent directory. This potentially could allow control-flow bypass checks to be defeated if an attack can specify the entire string representing the 'input' path. This vulnerability is patched in release 2.3.0.0 of ESAPI. As a workaround, it is possible to write one's own implementation of the Validator interface. However, maintainers do not recommend this." } ] }, "generator": { "engine": "Vulnogram 0.0.9" }, "impact": { "cvss": { "attackComplexity": "HIGH", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.5, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1" } }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "https://securitylab.github.com/advisories/GHSL-2022-008_The_OWASP_Enterprise_Security_API/", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://securitylab.github.com/advisories/GHSL-2022-008_The_OWASP_Enterprise_Security_API/" }, { "name": "https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/security/advisories/GHSA-8m5h-hrqm-pxm2", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/security/advisories/GHSA-8m5h-hrqm-pxm2" }, { "name": "https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/blob/develop/documentation/esapi4java-core-2.3.0.0-release-notes.txt", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/ESAPI/esapi-java-legacy/blob/develop/documentation/esapi4java-core-2.3.0.0-release-notes.txt" }, { "url": "https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2022.html", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpujul2022.html" }, { "refsource": "CONFIRM", "name": "https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20230127-0014/", "url": "https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20230127-0014/" } ] }, "source": { "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } }
