Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Tandoor Recipes is an application for managing recipes, planning meals, and building shopping lists. Prior to 2.5.1, a Path Traversal vulnerability in the RecipeImport workflow of Tandoor Recipes allows authenticated users with import permissions to read arbitrary files on the server. This vulnerability stems from a lack of input validation in the file_path parameter and insufficient checks in the Local storage backend, enabling an attacker to bypass storage directory restrictions and access sensitive system files (e.g., /etc/passwd) or application configuration files (e.g., settings.py), potentially leading to full system compromise. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.5.1.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in Tandoor Recipes prior to 2.5.1 allows authenticated users with import permissions to read arbitrary files from the server by manipulating file paths during recipe import operations. An attacker could access sensitive system files like /etc/passwd or application configuration files, potentially leading to full system compromise. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability.
Technical ContextAI
Classified as CWE-22 (Path Traversal). Affects the file_path component of Recipes. Tandoor Recipes is an application for managing recipes, planning meals, and building shopping lists. Prior to 2.5.1, a Path Traversal vulnerability in the RecipeImport workflow of Tandoor Recipes allows authenticated users with import permissions to read arbitrary files on the server. This vulnerability stems from a lack of input validation in the file_path parameter and insufficient checks in the Local storage backend, enabling an attacker to bypass storage directory restrictions and access sen
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Fixed in version 2.5.1.. Validate and sanitize file path inputs. Use allowlists. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.
