Title
ContentKeeper Web Appliance < 125.10 Arbitrary File Access via mimencode
Summary
ContentKeeper Web Appliance (now maintained by Impero Software) versions prior to 125.10 expose the mimencode binary via a CGI endpoint, allowing unauthenticated attackers to retrieve arbitrary files from the filesystem. By crafting a POST request to /cgi-bin/ck/mimencode with traversal and output parameters, attackers can read sensitive files such as /etc/passwd outside the webroot.

Summary
Markdownify MCP Server allows attackers to read arbitrary files
Details

All versions of the package mcp-markdownify-server are vulnerable to Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties via the get-markdown-file tool. An attacker can craft a prompt that, once accessed by the MCP host, will allow it to read arbitrary files from the host running the server.

GHSA-23J4-MW76-5V7H

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-14 20:14 – Updated: 2024-05-14 20:14
VLAI
Summary
Scrapy allows redirect following in protocols other than HTTP
Details

Impact

Scrapy was following redirects regardless of the URL protocol, so redirects were working for data://, file://, ftp://, s3://, and any other scheme defined in the DOWNLOAD_HANDLERS setting.

However, HTTP redirects should only work between URLs that use the http:// or https:// schemes.

A malicious actor, given write access to the start requests (e.g. ability to define start_urls) of a spider and read access to the spider output, could exploit this vulnerability to: - Redirect to any local file using the file:// scheme to read its contents. - Redirect to an ftp:// URL of a malicious FTP server to obtain the FTP username and password configured in the spider or project. - Redirect to any s3:// URL to read its content using the S3 credentials configured in the spider or project.

For file:// and s3://, how the spider implements its parsing of input data into an output item determines what data would be vulnerable. A spider that always outputs the entire contents of a response would be completely vulnerable, while a spider that extracted only fragments from the response could significantly limit vulnerable data.

Patches

Upgrade to Scrapy 2.11.2.

Workarounds

Replace the built-in retry middlewares (RedirectMiddleware and MetaRefreshMiddleware) with custom ones that implement the fix from Scrapy 2.11.2, and verify that they work as intended.

Mitigation
Implementation System Configuration Operation

When storing data in the cloud (e.g., S3 buckets, Azure blobs, Google Cloud Storage, etc.), use the provider's controls to disable public access.

CAPEC-150: Collect Data from Common Resource Locations

An adversary exploits well-known locations for resources for the purposes of undermining the security of the target. In many, if not most systems, files and resources are organized in a default tree structure. This can be useful for adversaries because they often know where to look for resources or files that are necessary for attacks. Even when the precise location of a targeted resource may not be known, naming conventions may indicate a small area of the target machine's file tree where the resources are typically located. For example, configuration files are normally stored in the /etc director on Unix systems. Adversaries can take advantage of this to commit other types of attacks.

CAPEC-639: Probe System Files

An adversary obtains unauthorized information due to improperly protected files. If an application stores sensitive information in a file that is not protected by proper access control, then an adversary can access the file and search for sensitive information.
