Summary
Network-AI from 5.13.4 before 5.15.5 contains a path traversal flaw (CWE-23) in FileJobStore. Traversal sequences in the job id let a remote attacker with low privileges read or delete arbitrary .json files. Attackers who control the id passed to FileJobStore.get() can disclose credentials and grant tokens, or delete configuration files that weaken AuthGuardian authorization.

Description from the CNA
Network-AI from 5.13.4 before 5.15.5 contains a path traversal vulnerability in FileJobStore that allows attackers to read or delete arbitrary .json files by supplying traversal sequences in the job id. Attackers controlling the id passed to FileJobStore.get(), FileJobStore.delete(), or JobQueue.getJob() can disclose credentials and grant tokens or delete configuration files to weaken AuthGuardian authorization.
