Official description

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to delete sensitive files on vulnerable installations of Mitel MiVoice Office 400. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the web portal listening on TCP port 443, under Maintenance → File Management → File Browser, which is affected by a directory traversal vulnerability. By exploiting this vulnerability, an authenticated attacker can access and delete files outside of the intended directory, including files belonging to the Mitel application and the underlying Linux system. Deleting critical system or application files can result in a denial-of-service condition affecting the underlying system.

The underlying weakness: Path Traversal: 'dir....filename'

The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize 'dir....filename' (multiple internal backslash dot dot) sequences that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Inputs should be decoded and canonicalized to the application's current internal representation before being validated (CWE-180). Make sure that the application does not decode the same input twice (CWE-174). Such errors could be used to bypass allowlist validation schemes by introducing dangerous inputs after they have been checked.
