Описание
Flare is a Next.js-based, self-hostable file sharing platform that integrates with screenshot tools. Prior to 1.7.3, an authenticated path traversal vulnerability in /api/avatars/[filename] allows any logged-in user to read arbitrary files from within the application container. The filename URL parameter is passed to path.join() without sanitization, and getFileStream() performs no path validation, enabling %2F-encoded ../ sequences to escape the uploads/avatars/ directory and read any file accessible to the nextjs process under /app/. Authentication is enforced by Next.js middleware. However, on instances with open registration enabled (the default), any attacker can self-register and immediately exploit this. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.7.3.

A flaw was found in Flare, a file sharing platform. An authenticated path traversal vulnerability exists in the /api/avatars/[filename] endpoint, allowing a logged-in user to read arbitrary files from the application container. This occurs because the filename parameter is not properly sanitized, enabling specially crafted sequences to bypass directory restrictions. If open registration is enabled, an attacker can self-register and exploit this vulnerability, leading to sensitive information disclosure.
