| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Ultimate PHP Board (UPB) versions 1.9.6 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) sequence and trailing null (%00) byte in the
id parameter. This can be demonstrated by injecting a Perl CGI script using "[NR]" sequences in the message parameter, then calling "close.php" with modified id and t id parameters to chmod the script.Recommendations
For Ultimate PHP Board (UPB) versions 1.9.6 and earlier, consider restricting access to the
newpost.php file and the close.php file until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the id parameter in the affected API endpoint and restrict the use of the message parameter to prevent injection of malicious scripts.Fix
