An issue in Bazarr v1.4.3 in the /api/swaggerui/static component allows unauthenticated attackers to perform a directory traversal (path traversal) via crafted requests, enabling access to files outside the intended web root for that endpoint.

This repository contains a Python proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2024-40348, a directory traversal vulnerability in Bazaar v1.4.3 and prior. The main file, CVE-2024-40348.py, is a command-line tool that allows users to test single or multiple targets for the vulnerability. It works by sending a crafted HTTP GET request to the '/api/swaggerui/static/' endpoint, appending a directory traversal payload to access arbitrary files on the server (default: /etc/passwd). The tool supports both single-target and bulk scanning modes, logs results to a local file, and provides colored console output for status messages. The README.md provides usage instructions, requirements, and references. The exploit is operational, capable of reading arbitrary files from vulnerable servers without authentication, and is intended for authorized testing only.
