In affected versions the ItemImportServiceImpl is vulnerable to a path traversal vulnerability. This means a malicious SAF (simple archive format) package could cause a file/directory to be created anywhere the Tomcat/DSpace user can write to on the server. However, this path traversal vulnerability is only possible by a user with special privileges (either Administrators or someone with command-line access to the server). This vulnerability impacts the XMLUI, JSPUI and command-line. Users are advised to upgrade. As a basic workaround, users may block all access to the following URL paths: If you are using the XMLUI, block all access to /admin/batchimport path (this is the URL of the Admin Batch Import tool). Keep in mind, if your site uses the path \"/xmlui\", then you'd need to block access to /xmlui/admin/batchimport. If you are using the JSPUI, block all access to /dspace-admin/batchimport path (this is the URL of the Admin Batch Import tool). Keep in mind, if your site uses the path \"/jspui\", then you'd need to block access to /jspui/dspace-admin/batchimport. Keep in mind, only an Administrative user or a user with command-line access to the server is able to import/upload SAF packages. Therefore, assuming those users do not blindly upload untrusted SAF packages, then it is unlikely your site could be impacted by this vulnerability." } ] }, "impact": { "cvss": { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.2, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/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://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/security/advisories/GHSA-8rmh-55h4-93h5", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/security/advisories/GHSA-8rmh-55h4-93h5" }, { "name": "https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/commit/56e76049185bbd87c994128a9d77735ad7af0199", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/commit/56e76049185bbd87c994128a9d77735ad7af0199" }, { "name": "https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/commit/7af52a0883a9dbc475cf3001f04ed11b24c8a4c0", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/commit/7af52a0883a9dbc475cf3001f04ed11b24c8a4c0" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-8rmh-55h4-93h5", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } }
