Описание

The Sleuth Kit through 4.14.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in tsk_recover that allows an attacker to write files to arbitrary locations outside the intended recovery directory via crafted filenames or directory paths with path traversal sequences in a filesystem image. An attacker can craft a malicious filesystem image with embedded /../ sequences in filenames that, when processed by tsk_recover, writes files outside the output directory, potentially achieving code execution by overwriting shell configuration or cron entries.

A flaw was found in The Sleuth Kit, specifically in the tsk_recover tool. An attacker can exploit this path traversal vulnerability by providing a specially crafted filesystem image containing malicious filenames or directory paths with path traversal sequences. This allows the attacker to write files to arbitrary locations outside the intended recovery directory. The most critical consequence is the potential for arbitrary code execution by overwriting critical system files like shell configurations or cron entries.

Отчет

An IMPORTANT path traversal vulnerability in the tsk_recover tool of The Sleuth Kit allows an attacker to write files to arbitrary locations by providing a specially crafted filesystem image. This could lead to arbitrary code execution by overwriting critical system files. This vulnerability affects Red Hat community projects such as Fedora and EPEL, where The Sleuth Kit is available.
