CVE-2024-9922NVD status: Analyzed

team+: Relative Path Traversal

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2024-9922 is a high-severity relative path traversal vulnerability in team+ from Teamplus Technology, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected team+ versions: 13.5.*. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.67% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 52% of scored CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update team\+ to 14.0.0 or a later version.
  2. Update Team+ Pro to 14.0.0 or a later version.
  3. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

The Team+ from TEAMPLUS TECHNOLOGY does not properly validate a specific page parameter, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary system files.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Relative Path Traversal

The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize sequences such as.. that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use an application firewall that can detect attacks against this weakness. It can be beneficial in cases in which the code cannot be fixed (because it is controlled by a third party), as an emergency prevention measure while more comprehensive software assurance measures are applied, or to provide defense in depth.
