Path Traversal
Path traversal exploits occur when applications use user-controlled input to construct file system paths without proper validation.
How It Works
Path traversal exploits occur when applications use user-controlled input to construct file system paths without proper validation. Attackers inject special sequences like ../ (dot-dot-slash) to escape the intended directory and navigate to arbitrary locations in the file system. Each ../ sequence moves up one directory level, allowing an attacker to break out of a restricted folder and access sensitive files elsewhere on the server.
Attackers employ various encoding techniques to bypass basic filters. Simple URL encoding transforms ../ into %2e%2e%2f, while double encoding becomes %252e%252e%252f (encoding the percent sign itself). Other evasion methods include nested sequences like ....// (which become ../ after filter removal), null byte injection (%00 to truncate path validation), and OS-specific path separators (backslashes on Windows). Absolute paths like /etc/passwd may also work if the application doesn't enforce relative path constraints.
The typical attack flow begins with identifying input parameters that reference files—such as file=, path=, template=, or page=. The attacker then tests various traversal payloads to determine if path validation exists and what depth is needed to reach system files. Success means reading configuration files, credentials, source code, or even writing malicious files if the application allows file uploads or modifications.
Impact
- Credential exposure: Access to configuration files containing database passwords, API keys, and authentication tokens
- Source code disclosure: Reading application code reveals business logic, additional vulnerabilities, and hardcoded secrets
- System file access: Retrieving
/etc/passwd,/etc/shadow, or Windows SAM files for credential cracking - Configuration tampering: If write access exists, attackers modify settings or inject malicious code
- Remote code execution: Writing web shells or executable files to web-accessible directories enables full system compromise
Real-World Examples
ZendTo file sharing application (CVE-2025-34508) contained a path traversal vulnerability allowing unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from the server. The flaw existed in file retrieval functionality where user input directly influenced file path construction without adequate validation, exposing sensitive configuration data and potentially system files.
Web application frameworks frequently suffer from path traversal in template rendering engines. When applications allow users to specify template names or include files, insufficient validation permits attackers to read source code from other application modules or framework configuration files, revealing database credentials and session secrets.
File download features in content management systems represent another common vector. Applications that serve user-requested files from disk often fail to restrict paths properly, enabling attackers to download backup files, logs containing sensitive data, or administrative scripts that weren't intended for public access.
Mitigation
- Avoid user input in file paths: Use indirect references like database IDs mapped to filenames on the server side
- Canonicalize and validate: Convert paths to absolute canonical form, then verify they remain within the allowed base directory
- Allowlist permitted files: Maintain an explicit list of accessible files rather than trying to blocklist malicious patterns
- Chroot jails or sandboxing: Restrict application file system access to specific directories at the OS level
- Strip dangerous sequences: Remove
../,..\\, and encoded variants, though this alone is insufficient

Privilege escalation via path traversal affects multiple Fortinet appliances - FortiWeb (6.4, 7.0, 7.2, 7.4.0-7.4.4, 7.6.0), FortiVoice (6.0, 6.4.0-6.4.9, 7.0.0-7.0.4), and FortiRecorder (7.0.0-7.0.4, 7.2.0-7.2.1) - where an attacker sends specially crafted packets that break out of a restricted directory to gain elevated privileges. Fortinet PSIRT scores this CVSS 9.1 with no confidentiality impact but high integrity and availability impact, reflecting a management-plane compromise rather than data theft. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is modest (0.39%, 60th percentile), so exploitation is not yet observed at scale.

Arbitrary file write outside the intended destination in rsync's client-side `--safe-links` handling allows a malicious or compromised rsync server to bypass the symlink safety check via a path-traversal flaw (CWE-22). The client fails to recursively verify whether a symbolic-link target supplied by the server itself contains a nested symlink, so a controlled server can place files anywhere the rsync process can write. A detailed advisory was published by Google's security-research team (GHSA-p5pg-x43v-mvqj) as part of the January 2025 rsync vulnerability cluster, but the issue is not in CISA KEV and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is moderate at 2.89% (86th percentile).
Server-to-client path traversal in rsync lets a malicious or compromised rsync server write files outside the client's intended destination directory by abusing the `--inc-recursive` incremental-recursion mode. Because the server can negotiate `--inc-recursive` even when the client does not request it, missing symlink validation combined with per-file-list deduplication allows arbitrary file placement on the connecting client. Publicly available exploit code exists, EPSS is 3.19% (87th percentile), and Red Hat has shipped fixes, but it is not currently listed in CISA KEV.

Arbitrary file write and folder deletion in Fortinet FortiManager, FortiOS, and FortiProxy is possible via a path traversal flaw in the security fabric interface, where a remote authenticated attacker can write arbitrary files and, more severely, a remote unauthenticated attacker can delete arbitrary folders.
