AI-suggested
This vulnerability is fixed in efw4.X version 4.08.010. Users should upgrade to version 4.08.010 or later to remediate the issue. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed beyond this version update, so verify with the vendor advisory for the latest remediation guidance.
Description
efw4.X is an Enterprise Framework for Web. Prior to 4.08.010, the elfinder_checkRisk function validates target and targets for path traversal and home containment, but does not validate the dst (destination) parameter used by elfinder_paste. An attacker can copy or move files from within the home directory to any arbitrary destination by setting dst to a base64-encoded traversal path. This bypasses the protected=true security control. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.08.010.
