Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
OpenList Frontend is a UI component for OpenList. Prior to 4.1.10, the application contains path traversal vulnerability in multiple file operation handlers in server/handles/fsmanage.go. Filename components in req.Names are directly concatenated with validated directories using stdpath.Join. This allows ".." sequences to bypass path restrictions, enabling users to access other users' files within the same storage mount and perform unauthorized actions such as deletion, renaming, or copying of files. An authenticated attacker can bypass directory-level authorisation by injecting traversal sequences into filename components, enabling unauthorised file removal and copying across user boundaries within the same storage mount. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.1.10.
AnalysisAI
OpenList Frontend versions prior to 4.1.10 contain a path traversal vulnerability in file operation handlers that allows authenticated users to bypass directory restrictions and access other users' files on the same storage mount. An attacker can exploit this by injecting ".." sequences into filename parameters to perform unauthorized file operations including deletion, renaming, and copying across user boundaries. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, which is resolved in version 4.1.10.
Technical ContextAI
Classified as CWE-22 (Path Traversal). Affects the multiple file operation component of Openlist. OpenList Frontend is a UI component for OpenList.

RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Fixed in version 4.1.10.. Validate and sanitize file path inputs. Use allowlists. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.
OpenList versions prior to 4.1.10 disable TLS certificate verification by default in storage driver communications, enab
