Loading vulnerability…
In Lightdash before version 0.510.3, the file endpoints implemented in packages/backend/src/routers are vulnerable to directory traversal attacks. The endpoints do not properly sanitize user-supplied input, allowing attackers to use '..' sequences to access files outside the intended directory. Additionally, the endpoints do not enforce that only files with specific extensions (.csv or .png) are accessed, further increasing the risk of unauthorized file access.

This repository contains a Python proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2023-35844, a path traversal vulnerability in Lightdash. The main file, CVE-2023-35844.py, allows the user to test a single URL or a list of URLs for the vulnerability. The exploit works by sending a GET request to the vulnerable API endpoint '/api/v1/slack/image/slack-image%2F..%2F..%2F..%2Fetc%2Fpasswd', attempting to read the /etc/passwd file from the server. If the file is successfully read and contains the string 'root', the script prints the file contents, confirming the vulnerability. The README provides a brief description in Chinese, identifying the exploit as a file read vulnerability for Lightdash. The exploit is network-based and targets Lightdash instances accessible over HTTP/HTTPS.
