Network-reachable endpoint (AV:N/AC:L) requires a valid low-privileged account (PR:L, UI:N); arbitrary .log read gives high confidentiality (C:H) with no integrity or availability impact.

ProjeQtor versions 7.0 through 12.4.3 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the log file viewer at dynamicDialog.php where the logname parameter is not validated against directory traversal sequences before constructing file paths. Authenticated attackers can inject directory traversal sequences ../ into the logname parameter to read arbitrary .log files accessible to the web server process on the filesystem.
AnalysisAI
Arbitrary file disclosure in ProjeQtor 7.0 through 12.4.3 allows authenticated attackers to read .log files anywhere on the filesystem by injecting ../ sequences into the logname parameter of the dynamicDialog.php log viewer. Reported by VulnCheck with publicly available exploit code; EPSS is low (0.20%, 42th percentile) and it is not in CISA KEV, so no public exploit identified as actively exploited. The flaw is limited to files readable by the web server process and to .log-named targets, capping direct impact to information disclosure.
Technical ContextAI
ProjeQtor is a PHP-based open-source web application for IT/enterprise project management (tasks, tickets, resources, planning). The vulnerable component is the server-side log viewer endpoint dynamicDialog.php, which builds a filesystem path from the user-supplied logname parameter without canonicalizing or validating it against directory traversal. This is a classic CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory / path traversal): because ../ sequences are not stripped or rejected, the constructed path escapes the intended log directory. The single affected-product CPE is cpe:2.3:a:projeqtor:projeqtor:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, confirming the vendor/product scope. The tags PHP and Path Traversal align with the root cause.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to a ProjeQtor release later than 12.4.3 that contains the fix; no vendor-released patched version is independently confirmed in the provided data, so treat this as 'no vendor-released patched version independently confirmed at time of analysis' and verify the fixed build directly with the vendor at https://www.projeqtor.com and the advisory at https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/projeqtor-path-traversal-via-dynamicdialog-php. Until a confirmed fixed version is applied, restrict reachability of the dynamicDialog.php log-viewer endpoint at the web server or WAF layer (for example block or filter requests whose logname parameter contains ../ , encoded traversal like %2e%2e%2f, or absolute paths), and limit the endpoint to administrative users only - noting this may break legitimate log-viewing for lower-privileged operators. Additionally tighten filesystem permissions so the web server process cannot read sensitive files outside its log directory, and audit ProjeQtor accounts to remove unnecessary low-privileged users, since exploitation requires authentication.
