Description
Emissary is a P2P based data-driven workflow engine. Prior to 8.39.0, the configuration API endpoint (/api/configuration/{name}) validated configuration names using a blacklist approach that checked for \, /, .., and trailing .. This could potentially be bypassed using URL-encoded variants, double-encoding, or Unicode normalization to achieve path traversal and read configuration files outside the intended directory. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.39.0.
Analysis
Emissary versions prior to 8.39.0 allow unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary configuration files through path traversal via the /api/configuration/{name} endpoint. The vulnerability stems from incomplete blacklist validation of configuration names that can be bypassed using URL-encoded variants, double-encoding, or Unicode normalization attacks. …
