AI-suggested

Since the vulnerability requires authenticated users with theme management rights, restricting such privileges can reduce risk. Monitor vendor advisories for official patches or updates addressing this issue. Until a fix is available, avoid uploading untrusted theme archives containing symbolic links.

Description

Webasyst Framework versions through 4.4.0 have an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the waArchiveTar::writeItem() function. This flaw allows authenticated users with theme management rights to upload theme archives containing symbolic links that point to sensitive files such as wa-config/db.php or /etc/passwd. These files can then be read through the public theme path, potentially exposing sensitive configuration or system information.
