A path traversal vulnerability in the SPO extension of MetaGPT 0.8.1 allows an attacker to read arbitrary files via the FILE_NAME value used by set_file_name() and load_meta_data() in metagpt/ext/spo/utils/load.py. The vulnerable code joins the attacker-controlled FILE_NAME value with the settings directory and opens the resulting path without validating that the resolved path remains within the intended directory.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in MetaGPT 0.8.1's SPO extension exposes arbitrary server-side files to unauthenticated remote attackers via a crafted FILE_NAME parameter. The flaw in metagpt/ext/spo/utils/load.py allows set_file_name() and load_meta_data() to open attacker-controlled paths - including traversal sequences - without confirming the resolved path remains within the intended settings directory. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that MetaGPT version 0.8.1 is deployed with its SPO extension active AND that the attacker can supply an arbitrary FILE_NAME string to an endpoint invoking set_file_name() or load_meta_data() in metagpt/ext/spo/utils/load.py. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) indicates unauthenticated remote exploitation with high confidentiality impact and low attack complexity, which would be severe if the SPO extension is reachable over a network. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
