Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-24307, organizations should immediately upgrade the Tunis Soft Product Designer module to version 1.178.36 or later once available. In the absence of an official patch, implement strict input validation and sanitization on all file path parameters within the ajaxProcessCropImage() method to prevent directory traversal sequences such as '../'. Employ allowlisting of acceptable file paths and enforce server-side checks to restrict file access to designated directories only. Additionally, configure web server permissions to limit file read access to necessary directories and files, minimizing the impact of potential traversal attempts. Enable logging and monitoring of suspicious requests targeting the ajaxProcessCropImage() endpoint to detect exploitation attempts early. Conduct regular security assessments and code reviews focusing on file handling functions. Finally, educate development teams on secure coding practices related to file operations to prevent similar vulnerabilities in the future.

Description

Path Traversal vulnerability in Tunis Soft "Product Designer" (productdesigner) module for PrestaShop before version 1.178.36, allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges and obtain sensitive information via the ajaxProcessCropImage() method.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-24307 is unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information due to the path traversal vulnerability. Attackers can access files outside the intended directories, potentially exposing customer data, payment information, internal configuration files, and proprietary business data. This breach of confidentiality can lead to data theft, compliance violations (e.g., GDPR, PCI DSS), reputational damage, and financial losses. Although the vulnerability does not directly affect integrity or availability, the information gained can facilitate further attacks such as privilege escalation, code execution, or targeted phishing. The ease of exploitation without authentication or user interaction increases the likelihood of widespread exploitation once public exploits emerge. Organizations running vulnerable versions of the Product Designer module on PrestaShop face increased risk of data breaches and must act swiftly to mitigate exposure. The impact is particularly severe for e-commerce businesses that rely on customer trust and data protection.

Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #6OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
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.
Implementation · Input Validation
Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
Architecture and Design
For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks…
Implementation · Input Validation
Inputs should be decoded and canonicalized to the application's current internal representation before being validated (CWE-180). Make sure that the application does not decode the same input twice (CWE-174).
