2) Restrict administrator access to DocAve and related products using the principle of least privilege and enforce strong authentication mechanisms such as multi-factor authentication (MFA). 3) Implement strict file upload policies and validation controls at the application and network levels, including filtering and scanning uploaded files for malicious content. 4) Monitor file system changes within the web root directories for unauthorized modifications or additions, using file integrity monitoring tools. 5) Conduct regular audits of administrator accounts and review access logs for suspicious activities. 6) Segment the network to limit the impact of potential compromises and isolate critical systems. 7) Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block path traversal attempts. 8) Educate administrators on secure handling of credentials and the risks associated with file uploads. These measures, combined, reduce the likelihood of exploitation and limit the damage if an attack occurs.
Description
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in DocAve 6.13.2, Perimeter 1.12.3, Compliance Guardian 4.7.1, and earlier versions, allowing administrator users to upload files without proper validation. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by uploading malicious files that compromise the system. In addition, it is vulnerable to Path Traversal, which allows files to be written to arbitrary directories within the web root.
