Description
Typemill before 2.24.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with Author-level privileges to read arbitrary files outside the content directory by supplying traversal sequences in the path query parameter passed to Storage::getFile() with an empty folder argument.

Executive Summary

Typemill before version 2.24.0 has a path traversal vulnerability. This means that authenticated users with Author-level privileges can manipulate the path query parameter in a way that allows them to read files outside the intended content directory. They do this by using traversal sequences that bypass the normal checks in the Storage::getFolderPath() function, enabling access to sensitive files that should be protected.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow an attacker with Author-level access to read arbitrary files on the server outside the content directory. This could lead to exposure of sensitive information stored on the server, potentially including configuration files, credentials, or other private data. Such unauthorized access can compromise the security and privacy of the system and its data.
