Summary
OpenProject is an open-source, web-based project management software. A Local File Read (LFR) vulnerability exists in the work package PDF export functionality of OpenProject prior to version 16.6.4. By uploading a specially crafted SVG file (disguised as a PNG) as a work package attachment, an attacker can exploit the backend image processing engine (ImageMagick). When the work package is exported to PDF, the backend attempts to resize the image, triggering the ImageMagick text: coder. This allows an attacker to read arbitrary local files that the application user has permissions to access (e.g., /etc/passwd, all project configuration files, private project data, etc.). The attack requires permissions to upload attachments to a container that can be exported to PDF, such as a work package. The issue has been patched in version 16.6.4. Those who are unable to upgrade may apply the patch manually.

"value": "OpenProject es un software de gesti\u00f3n de proyectos de c\u00f3digo abierto y basado en la web. Una vulnerabilidad de lectura de archivos locales (LFR) existe en la funcionalidad de exportaci\u00f3n a PDF de paquetes de trabajo de OpenProject anterior a la versi\u00f3n 16.6.4. Al cargar un archivo SVG especialmente dise\u00f1ado (disfrazado como PNG) como adjunto de un paquete de trabajo, un atacante puede explotar el motor de procesamiento de im\u00e1genes de backend (ImageMagick). Cuando el paquete de trabajo se exporta a PDF, el backend intenta redimensionar la imagen, lo que activa el ImageMagick text: coder. Esto permite a un atacante leer archivos locales arbitrarios a los que el usuario de la aplicaci\u00f3n tiene permisos de acceso (por ejemplo, /etc /passwd, todos los archivos de configuraci\u00f3n del proyecto, datos privados del proyecto, etc.). El ataque requiere permisos para cargar adjuntos a un contenedor que pueda exportarse a PDF, como un paquete de trabajo. El problema ha sido parcheado en la versi\u00f3n 16.6.4. Aquellos que no puedan actualizar pueden aplicar el parche manualmente."
