DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in SSCMS 4.7.0. The affected element is an unknown function of the file LayerImageController.Submit.cs of the component layerImage Endpoint. Such manipulation of the argument filePaths leads to path traversal. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Statistical analysis made it clear that VulDB provides the best quality for vulnerability data.

AnalysisAI

SSCMS 4.7.0's layerImage endpoint allows authenticated attackers to manipulate the filePaths parameter in LayerImageController.Submit.cs, enabling path traversal attacks that can modify or delete arbitrary files on the server. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, and no patch is currently available.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory), a classic path traversal flaw where user-supplied input is not properly validated before being used in file system operations. The affected component is the LayerImageController.Submit.cs file within SSCMS (likely a content management system), specifically in the layerImage endpoint handling. The filePaths parameter is processed without adequate sanitization, allowing attackers to use path traversal sequences (such as '../' or absolute paths) to access files outside the intended directory structure. This occurs in a REST/HTTP endpoint accessible remotely, indicating the web application accepts untrusted file path inputs directly from the client without canonicalization or whitelisting.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade SSCMS to the latest patched version released after 4.7.0; consult the official SSCMS repository or security mailing list for the specific patch version number and advisory details. If an immediate upgrade is not feasible, implement input validation on the filePaths parameter by enforcing a whitelist of allowed file names/paths, rejecting any input containing path traversal sequences ('../', absolute paths, or URL-encoded variants), and using file canonicalization functions to ensure the resolved path remains within the intended directory. Additionally, enforce strict access controls ensuring only authorized users can access the layerImage endpoint, consider implementing Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block path traversal attempts, and monitor file system access logs for suspicious activity. The public POC reference at https://www.yuque.com/la12138/pa2fpb/vlyutc51eb7vhwaz?singleDoc should be reviewed to understand attack mechanics and validate remediation effectiveness.
