DescriptionCVE.org

A Path Traversal and Remote File Inclusion (RFI) vulnerability exists in the parisneo/lollms-webui application, affecting versions v9.7 to the latest. The vulnerability arises from insufficient input validation in the /apply_settings function, allowing an attacker to manipulate the discussion_db_name parameter to traverse the file system and include arbitrary files. This issue is compounded by the bypass of input filtering in the install_binding, reinstall_binding, and unInstall_binding endpoints, despite the presence of a sanitize_path_from_endpoint(data.name) filter. Successful exploitation enables an attacker to upload and execute malicious code on the victim's system, leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE).
