Path Traversal Vulnerability in MineAdmin Prior to 3.2.0-alpha.2

Publication date: 2026-09-30

Last updated on: 2026-09-30

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
MineAdmin is a ready-to-use backend management system suitable for quickly building website backends, operation platforms, permission centers, internal management systems, CMS, CRM, OA, ERP and other business applications. Prior to version 3.2.0-alpha.2, the app-store plugin service concatenates unsanitized user-supplied identifier values directly into file system paths. An attacker can use path traversal sequences (e.g., ../) to read, install, or uninstall plugins from arbitrary directories, and potentially execute arbitrary composer commands. This issue has been patched in version 3.2.0-alpha.2.

Executive Summary

CVE-2026-55224 is a path traversal vulnerability in MineAdmin, a backend management system. The issue occurs in the app-store plugin service where user-supplied identifiers are directly used in file system paths without sanitization. Attackers can exploit this by using path traversal sequences like ../ to read, install, or uninstall plugins from arbitrary directories. This may allow execution of arbitrary Composer commands.

Detection Guidance

Check MineAdmin versions below 3.2.0-alpha.2 for vulnerable plugin operations. Review logs for unusual plugin install/uninstall/download actions or path traversal attempts in file system paths. Inspect Service.php and IndexController.php for unsanitized identifier handling.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to access sensitive files, install malicious plugins, or uninstall existing ones. If Composer commands are executed, it may lead to arbitrary code execution on the server. The vulnerability affects all authenticated users due to missing permission checks in IndexController.php.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, violating GDPR's data protection principles and HIPAA's security requirements. Unauthorized plugin installation may also compromise system integrity, leading to non-compliance with regulatory standards.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade MineAdmin to version 3.2.0-alpha.2 or later. Validate and sanitize plugin identifiers using basename() or strict regex. Implement permission middleware in IndexController. Add ZIP entry validation to block path traversal and symlink attacks.
