DescriptionCVE.org

Laravel Excel provides supercharged Excel exports and imports in Laravel. From 3.1.8 until 3.1.70, in src/Files/Disk.php the Maatwebsite\Excel\Files\Disk::copy() method resolves the caller-controlled $destination supplied through Excel::store(), $export->store(), or storeExcel() against the process working directory with realpath() instead of the configured filesystem disk. If the path names an existing writable file, Disk::copy() opens it with fopen() in rb+ mode and uses stream_copy_to_stream(), bypassing Flysystem path confinement and allowing an attacker whose application input controls the export path to overwrite arbitrary existing files with export content. The rb+ behavior creates a non-truncating overwrite and trailing bytes when the new export is shorter, and overwriting an executable PHP file can lead to remote code execution. This issue is fixed in version 3.1.70.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in Laravel Excel (versions 3.1.8-3.1.69) allows authenticated low-privilege users to overwrite arbitrary existing files on the server by supplying a crafted destination path to Excel::store(), $export->store(), or storeExcel(). The vulnerable Disk::copy() method resolves caller-controlled paths via realpath() against the process working directory, then opens matched files directly with fopen(rb+) and stream_copy_to_stream(), bypassing Flysystem's path confinement entirely. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires all three of the following conditions simultaneously: (1) the application exposes a code path where attacker-controlled input reaches the `$filePath` parameter of `Excel::store()`, `$export->store()`, or `storeExcel()` - applications that hardcode or sanitize this path are not exploitable via this vector; (2) `realpath()` must resolve the attacker-supplied path to an existing file writable by the web server process, meaning a non-existent destination is handled safely by the `else` branch; (3) for RCE specifically, the overwritten file must be a PHP file accessible via the web server - overwriting non-PHP files results in file corruption only. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.5 vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) captures the threat accurately: high complexity (AC:H) reflects the precondition that an existing writable file must reside at the resolved path; low privileges (PR:L) reflect that an authenticated application user must control the export destination parameter. … 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 Upgrade to Laravel Excel 3.1.70, which is confirmed patched via the official release at https://github.com/SpartnerNL/Laravel-Excel/releases/tag/3.1.70 and commit b5cafdfcf7ec63924e83303763be8fcae340f70b. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Immediately identify and document all systems running Laravel Excel versions 3.1.8-3.1.69; review user access to Excel export functions and implement role-based restrictions to limit usage to trusted, essential users only. …
