Exploitability

CWE

KEV

CWE ID	Description
CWE-22	The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a Path Traversal issue in yx-image-recognition v1.0. It occurs when user-supplied parameters like dir or filePath are passed directly to file system operations without sanitization or validation. This allows attackers to access files outside intended directories.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, inspect applications using yx-image-recognition v1.0 for unsanitized file path parameters like dir or filePath. Check logs for unusual file access patterns or requests containing path traversal sequences such as ../. Use tools like grep to search for these parameters in web server logs or application input fields.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to read sensitive files on the server, including configuration files, user data, or system files. This may lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, or further system compromise depending on the exposed files.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate compliance requirements like GDPR (data protection) or HIPAA (health data privacy) by exposing sensitive data. Organizations may face legal penalties, fines, or reputational damage if such breaches occur due to inadequate security controls.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update yx-image-recognition to a patched version if available. If no patch exists, disable the application or restrict access to it. Implement input validation to sanitize file paths, using allowlists for permitted directories. Configure web application firewalls to block requests with suspicious path traversal patterns.
