AI Analysis

Impact

An information disclosure flaw in the /admin/backup directory allows unauthenticated attackers to list or guess filenames that reveal database backup files. These dumps contain user records and administrator password hashes, exposing sensitive credentials and enabling further compromise. The weakness is classified as CWE‑530, indicating uncontrolled exposure of backup material.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects C97net qEngine CMS versions up to 6.0.0, Kemana Directory up to 1.5.6, and Cart Engine up to 3.0.0. All these products expose the /admin/backup location where database dumps reside without requiring authentication, making the files publicly accessible.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.2, the flaw is considered high severity; the EPSS score is not available and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit the vulnerability from any external network by sending standard HTTP requests to /admin/backup, automatically listing files or guessing date‑based filenames. Public exploits documented on Exploit‑DB demonstrate that the vulnerability is practical and can be automated, indicating a high risk that demands urgent remediation.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to a patched version: qEngine CMS > 6.0.0, Kemana Directory > 1.5.6, Cart Engine > 3.0.0
  • Restrict access to /admin/backup by moving it outside the web root or configuring the web server to deny unauthenticated requests
  • If immediate upgrade is not feasible, disable the backup feature in the CMS configuration or use firewall rules to block access to backup file names
