7.5

High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SweetRice versions 0.5.3 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via .. (dot dot) in the plugin parameter. This can be exploited by sending a request with the plugin parameter set to a value that includes ../ sequences, potentially leading to the execution of sensitive files on the server.

Recommendations For SweetRice versions 0.5.3 and earlier, consider restricting access to the as/lib/plugins.php file until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the plugin parameter with values that include ../ sequences to minimize the risk of exploitation.
