CVE-2025-67076 is a directory traversal vulnerability identified in the Omnispace Agora Project prior to version 25.10. This vulnerability arises from insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the misc controller's ExternalGetFile action, which allows attackers to traverse directories and read arbitrary files on the server. The exploit does not require authentication or user interaction, making it accessible remotely over the network. However, the attack is limited to files that have extensions, which somewhat constrains the scope of accessible files. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory), a common and critical flaw that can lead to unauthorized data disclosure. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.5, reflecting a high severity primarily due to the confidentiality impact (complete read access to files) without affecting integrity or availability. No patches or exploit code are currently publicly available, and no active exploitation has been reported. The vulnerability's presence in a project like Omnispace Agora, which may be used in communication or collaboration platforms, raises concerns about exposure of sensitive configuration files, credentials, or other critical data.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a significant risk of unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, including intellectual property, personal data, or internal configuration files. Such data leaks could lead to compliance violations under GDPR and other privacy regulations, resulting in legal and financial repercussions. The lack of authentication requirement increases the risk of automated scanning and exploitation attempts by threat actors. While the vulnerability does not allow modification or disruption of services, the confidentiality breach alone can facilitate further attacks such as credential theft, lateral movement, or espionage. Organizations in sectors like finance, government, telecommunications, and critical infrastructure are particularly at risk due to the sensitive nature of their data and the strategic value of their systems. The absence of known exploits currently provides a window for proactive mitigation before widespread attacks emerge.

1. Monitor Omnispace Agora Project vendor communications closely for official patches or updates addressing CVE-2025-67076 and apply them promptly upon release. 2. In the interim, restrict network access to the misc controller and specifically the ExternalGetFile action endpoints using firewall rules, web application firewalls (WAFs), or reverse proxy configurations to limit exposure to untrusted networks. 3. Implement strict input validation and URL filtering at the application or network layer to block directory traversal patterns such as '../' sequences. 4. Conduct thorough audits of server file permissions to ensure sensitive files are not accessible by the application process unnecessarily. 5. Enable logging and alerting on suspicious requests targeting the misc controller to detect potential exploitation attempts early. 6. Review and harden overall application security posture, including minimizing exposed services and enforcing least privilege principles. 7. Educate security teams and incident responders about this vulnerability to prepare for potential exploitation scenarios.
