Description
RustFS is a distributed object storage system built in Rust. In versions 1.0.0-alpha.13 to 1.0.0-alpha.78, RustFS contains a path traversal vulnerability in the /rustfs/rpc/read_file_stream endpoint. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.0-alpha.79.
Analysis
RustFS (alpha.13 to alpha.78) has a path traversal in /rustfs/rpc/read_file_stream that allows reading arbitrary files on the server. PoC available, fixed in alpha.79.
Technical Context
The /rustfs/rpc/read_file_stream endpoint does not properly validate file paths (CWE-22), allowing directory traversal sequences (../) to access files outside the intended storage directory. This can expose configuration files, credentials, and other sensitive data.
Affected Products
RustFS 1.0.0-alpha.13 through 1.0.0-alpha.78
Remediation
Update to RustFS 1.0.0-alpha.79 or later.
