Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
Microsoft UFO open-source framework for intelligent automation across devices and platforms. In 3.0.1-4-ge2626659, Microsoft UFO uses the user-controlled task_name value directly when constructing session log paths. An authenticated client can supply path traversal sequences in task_name and cause UFO to create log directories and log files outside the intended logs/ directory.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in the Microsoft UFO open-source framework for intelligent automation. In version 3.0.1-4-ge2626659, the software uses a user-controlled value called task_name directly when creating session log paths. Because an authenticated client can supply path traversal sequences in task_name, it can cause the system to create log directories and files outside the intended logs/ directory.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability allows an authenticated user to perform path traversal attacks by manipulating the task_name value. This can lead to the creation of log files and directories outside the designated logs/ directory, potentially overwriting or creating files in unauthorized locations. The impact includes high integrity and availability risks, as indicated by the CVSS score, meaning attackers could alter or disrupt log files and related system operations.
