DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in SSCMS up to 7.4.0. This vulnerability affects the function PathUtils.RemoveParentPath of the file /api/admin/plugins/install/actions/download. This manipulation of the argument path causes path traversal. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

A path traversal vulnerability exists in SSCMS versions up to 7.4.0 within the PathUtils.RemoveParentPath function of the plugin download API endpoint (/api/admin/plugins/install/actions/download). An authenticated administrator with high privileges can manipulate the path argument to traverse the file system and access or modify files outside the intended directory, potentially leading to information disclosure or system compromise. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The CVSS v3.1 score of 3.8 reflects a low severity rating driven by multiple mitigating factors: the attack requires high privileges (PR:H, meaning authenticated admin access), has low attack complexity (AC:L), and impacts only integrity and availability without confidentiality impact (C:N/I:L/A:L). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has obtained or been granted administrative credentials (either through social engineering, credential stuffing, or insider threat) logs into the SSCMS admin panel and navigates to the plugin installation feature. Instead of downloading a legitimate plugin, they craft a malicious request to /api/admin/plugins/install/actions/download with a path parameter containing traversal sequences such as ../../../../../../etc/passwd (on Linux) or ..\..\..\windows\win.ini (on Windows), exploiting the inadequate validation in PathUtils.RemoveParentPath to read sensitive configuration files or other sensitive data from the server. …
Remediation Immediately upgrade SSCMS to version 7.5.0 or later if available from the vendor or community maintainers; however, given the vendor's unresponsive disclosure history, verify that patches are available before assuming an upgrade path exists. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

During next maintenance window: Apply vendor patches when convenient. …
