Threats affecting pkg:github/ail-project/ail-framework

A path traversal vulnerability exists in AIL Framework before the release containing commit 0041456af25da0cdea1c1c4624e46baff2731d8f. An authenticated AIL user can supply crafted object identifiers through the investigation workflow to cause file paths to resolve outside the intended image, favicon, or screenshot storage directories. This may allow the attacker to download and read arbitrary files that are accessible to the AIL process. The issue occurs because user-controlled path components were joined with application storage paths without verifying that the resolved path remained within the expected directory. The affected download functionality could then include the contents of such files in a generated archive.

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in ail-framework versions prior to 6.8. The issue occurs in the modal item preview functionality when processing item content longer than 800 characters. Attacker-controlled content is returned without an explicit text/plain content type, allowing browsers to interpret it as active HTML and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of an authenticated user. This vulnerability has a high severity score of 8.5 and is fixed in version 6.8.
