DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Blinko is an AI-powered card note-taking project. In versions from 1.8.3 and prior, the fileName parameter is not filtered, allowing path traversal to write files anywhere on the file system. Moreover, this interface only requires authProcedure (normal user), not superAdminAuthMiddleware. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

AnalysisAI

Blinko versions 1.8.3 and earlier allow authenticated users to write arbitrary files to the filesystem through an unvalidated fileName parameter, exploiting a path traversal weakness. The vulnerability requires only basic user authentication and can be leveraged to place malicious files anywhere on the server, potentially leading to remote code execution or system compromise. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment This vulnerability presents a critical real-world risk despite the absence of CVSS and EPSS scores in the provided data. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated user (possibly with low privileges or credentials obtained through social engineering or credential reuse) crafts an HTTP request to Blinko's file write endpoint with a malicious fileName parameter such as '../../../../tmp/malicious.sh' or '../../blinko/startup.js'. Due to the lack of input validation, the application writes the attacker's supplied file content to the traversed path, potentially overwriting application code or system files. …
Remediation At the time of this analysis, no official patch is available from the Blinko project. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 30 days: Identify affected systems running versions from 1.8.3 and and apply vendor patches as part of regular patch cycle. …
