Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-49303 is a path traversal vulnerability classified under CWE-22, affecting the Frontend Admin product by DynamiApps, specifically versions up to 3.28.7. Path traversal vulnerabilities occur when an application improperly restricts user-supplied input used to construct file or directory paths, allowing attackers to access files and directories outside the intended restricted directory. In this case, the vulnerability allows an attacker with high privileges (PR:H) but no user interaction (UI:N) to remotely exploit the system over the network (AV:N). The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (C:H) but not integrity or availability, indicating that sensitive files could be read or disclosed without modifying or disrupting the system. The scope is changed (S:C), meaning the vulnerability can affect resources beyond the initially vulnerable component. The CVSS score of 6.8 (medium severity) reflects these factors. Although no known exploits are currently reported in the wild, the vulnerability poses a significant risk if weaponized. The lack of available patches at the time of publication increases the urgency for mitigation. The vulnerability affects the Frontend Admin by DynamiApps, a product likely used for administrative interface purposes, which typically has access to sensitive configuration and operational data, increasing the potential impact of unauthorized file access.

Potential Impact

For European organizations using Frontend Admin by DynamiApps, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive configuration files, credentials, or other critical data stored on the server. This exposure could facilitate further attacks such as privilege escalation, lateral movement, or data exfiltration. Given the administrative nature of the product, attackers gaining access to restricted files could undermine the confidentiality of internal systems and potentially compromise compliance with European data protection regulations such as GDPR. The medium severity rating suggests that while the vulnerability does not directly allow system takeover or data modification, the confidentiality breach alone could have serious reputational and regulatory consequences. Organizations in sectors with high data sensitivity, such as finance, healthcare, and government, are particularly at risk. The absence of known exploits currently provides a window for proactive defense, but the potential for future exploitation necessitates immediate attention.

Mitigation Recommendations

European organizations should implement the following specific measures: 1) Immediately audit all instances of Frontend Admin by DynamiApps to identify affected versions (up to 3.28.7) and prioritize patching or upgrading once official fixes are released. 2) Until patches are available, restrict network access to the Frontend Admin interface using network segmentation, firewalls, and VPNs to limit exposure to trusted administrators only. 3) Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block path traversal patterns in HTTP requests targeting the admin interface. 4) Conduct thorough logging and monitoring of access to the admin interface and file system to detect anomalous file access attempts indicative of exploitation. 5) Review and harden file system permissions on servers hosting the application to minimize the impact of any unauthorized file access. 6) Educate administrators on the risk and ensure strong authentication and authorization controls are in place to prevent privilege abuse. 7) Engage with DynamiApps support or security advisories to stay informed about patch releases and apply them promptly.
