CVE-2021-48013
Weaver E-cology 8.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files through the fpath parameter of the /weaver/ln.FileDownload endpoint.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.74%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Weaver E-cology 8.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files through the fpath parameter of the /weaver/ln.FileDownload endpoint. Attackers can send crafted GET requests with directory traversal sequences in fpath to retrieve sensitive files such as WEB-INF/web.xml from the server. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2023-10-18.
