## Summary The `deleteDump` parameter in `plugin/CloneSite/cloneServer.json.php` is passed directly to `unlink()` without any path sanitization. An attacker with valid clone credentials can use path traversal sequences (e.g., `../../`) to delete arbitrary files on the server, including critical application files such as `configuration.php`, causing complete denial of service or enabling further attacks by removing security-critical files. ## Details In `plugin/CloneSite/cloneServer.json.php`, the `$clonesDir` variable is set to the application's storage path appended with `clones/` (line 11). When a `deleteDump` GET parameter is provided, its value is concatenated directly into a path passed to `unlink()` with no validation: ```php // plugin/CloneSite/cloneServer.json.php:10-11 $videosDir = Video::getStoragePath() . ""; $clonesDir = "{$videosDir}clones/"; ``` ```php // plugin/CloneSite/cloneServer.json.php:44-46 if (!empty($_GET['deleteDump'])) { $resp->error = !unlink("{$clonesDir}{$_GET['deleteDump']}"); $resp->msg = "Delete Dump {$_GET['deleteDump']}"; die(json_encode($resp)); } ``` The intended functionality is to delete SQL dump files generated during the clo
03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. NIST National Vulnerability Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
- NVD lastModified does not establish freshness of every associated CPE record.
