{"id":"CVE-2023-38702","state":"PUBLISHED","title":"Knowage Server vulnerable to path traversal via upload functionality","description":"Knowage is an open source analytics and business intelligence suite. Starting in the 6.x.x branch and prior to version 8.1.8, the endpoint `/knowage/restful-services/dossier/importTemplateFile` allows authenticated users to upload `template file` on the server, but does not need any authorization to be reached. When the JSP file is uploaded, the attacker just needs to connect to `/knowageqbeengine/foo.jsp` to gain code execution on the server. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker with low privileges can upload a JSP file to the `knowageqbeengine` directory and gain code execution capability on the server. This issue has been patched in Knowage version 8.1.8.","publishedAt":"2023-08-04T18:10:28.899Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-08T17:39:16.743Z","severity":{"score":10,"label":"Critical","version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","source":"GitHub_M"},"assigner":"GitHub_M","products":["KnowageLabs Knowage-Server"],"affected":[{"vendor":"KnowageLabs","product":"Knowage-Server","versions":[{"version":">= 6.0.0, < 8.1.8","status":"affected"}]}],"references":["https://github.com/KnowageLabs/Knowage-Server/security/advisories/GHSA-7mjh-73q3-c3fc"],"weaknesses":["CWE-22"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:06:08.715Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2023/38xxx/CVE-2023-38702.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.1","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2023-38702","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2023-08-04T18:10:28.899Z","dateUpdated":"2024-10-08T17:39:16.743Z","assignerShortName":"GitHub_M","assignerOrgId":"a0819718-46f1-4df5-94e2-005712e83aaa","dateReserved":"2023-07-24T16:19:28.365Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"title":"Knowage Server vulnerable to path traversal via upload functionality","descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"Knowage is an open source analytics and business intelligence suite.
