DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was found in Sanster IOPaint 1.5.3. Impacted is the function _get_file of the file iopaint/file_manager/file_manager.py of the component File Manager. Performing a manipulation of the argument filename results in path traversal. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in Sanster IOPaint 1.5.3 File Manager allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read, write, or delete arbitrary files via manipulated filename parameters in the _get_file function. EPSS data unavailable, but publicly available exploit code exists. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment	Real-world risk is HIGH despite moderate CVSS 7.3 score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario	An unauthenticated remote attacker identifies an internet-facing IOPaint 1.5.3 instance through port scanning or service fingerprinting. Using the publicly available exploit code from GitHub, the attacker crafts HTTP requests to the file manager endpoint with manipulated filename parameters containing path traversal sequences like '../../../etc/passwd' to read sensitive system files or '../config/database.yml' to exfiltrate application credentials. …
Remediation	No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis due to vendor non-responsiveness to coordinated disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all IOPaint instances running version 1.5.3 in your environment and isolate them from untrusted networks. …
