Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Microweber versions prior to 0.830

Description The issue allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files by exploiting a directory traversal vulnerability. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the file parameter of the vulnerable delete.php file, located in the userfiles/modules/admin/backup directory.

Recommendations For versions prior to 0.830, update to version 0.830 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the delete.php file in the userfiles/modules/admin/backup directory to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the file parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
