Impact

IBM TRIRIGA Application Platform versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.8 contain an improper validation of file paths when extracting archive files, which can allow a remote authenticated attacker to decompress a crafted archive that places files outside the intended directory. This flaw can lead to arbitrary code execution on the server hosting the application, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects IBM TRIRIGA Application Platform, specifically versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.8, as referenced by the IBM product and associated CPE entries.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw has a CVSS score of 8.8, indicating high severity. EPSS data is not available, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is an authenticated user who can upload or trigger the extraction of archive files; the attacker would need user privileges on the application to provide or trigger the malicious archive. Once the flawed extraction occurs, attacker code may execute with the privileges of the application process.
