Summary

FileRise by error311 is affected before 3.23.0. It has a path traversal flaw (CWE-22) because dot and parent directory segments in the folder input of the save file operation are not canonicalized before access control checks. An authenticated non-administrator user with inherited edit permission on an ancestor folder can create files outside the authorized folder, and outside the configured WebDAV root where backend credentials allow.

Description from the CNA

FileRise is a self-hosted web-based file manager with multi-file upload, editing, and batch operations. In FileRise 3.22.0, the /api/file/saveFile.php operation accepts dot and dot-dot segments in its attacker-controlled folder input before ACL inheritance evaluates the uncanonicalized string. With an authenticated non-administrator session, a valid CSRF token, and inherited edit permission on a legitimate ancestor, the local filesystem or WebDAV adapter later resolves those segments as path navigation, permitting attacker-controlled file creation outside the authorized folder and, where backend credentials permit, outside the configured WebDAV root. Local storage also created directories before final containment validation and used a prefix comparison that accepted similarly named sibling roots. This issue is fixed in version 3.23.0.
