A directory traversal vulnerability exists in Severalnines ClusterControl versions 1.9.8 before 1.9.8-9778, 2.0.0 before 2.0.0-9779, and 2.1.0 before 2.1.0-9780. The vulnerability is present in the CMON API, which fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input in HTTP requests, allowing remote attackers to traverse directories and include arbitrary file content from the server's filesystem in the HTTP response.

This repository contains a Python proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2024-41628, a local file inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in Severalnines ClusterControl (versions 1.9.8 before 1.9.8-9778, 2.0.0 before 2.0.0-9779, and 2.1.0 before 2.1.0-9780). The exploit targets the CMON API's RPC and RPC-TLS interfaces, typically running on ports 9500 (HTTP) and 9501 (HTTPS). By sending a crafted GET request with directory traversal sequences, the script allows an attacker to retrieve arbitrary files from the target system, including highly sensitive files such as /etc/shadow, /etc/passwd, /root/.ssh/id_rsa, and /etc/cmon.cnf. The repository consists of the main exploit script (CVE-2024-41628.py) and a README.md with usage instructions and vulnerability details. The exploit is straightforward, requiring only the target IP, port, and file path as arguments, and demonstrates the vulnerability without providing a post-exploitation payload.
