Description
FilePress through 3.0.1 contains an sql injection vulnerability that allows authenticated low-privilege users to inject SQL into ORDER BY clauses via the unvalidated asc parameter. Attackers can use blind boolean or time-based subqueries in dzz/pichome/library/filelist.php and dzz/collection/filelist.php to extract database rows including administrator credential hashes.

Impact

FilePress up to version 3.0.1 contains an SQL injection vulnerability that allows low‑privilege authenticated users to inject arbitrary SQL into ORDER BY clauses via the unvalidated asc parameter. By using blind boolean or time‑based subqueries, an attacker can extract database rows, including administrator credential hashes. This is a classic input‑validation flaw catalogued as CWE‑89.

Affected Systems

The affected product is FilePress from vendor zyx0814. Versions up to and including 3.0.1 are vulnerable. Earlier unreleased revisions are not documented as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.1 indicates a moderate to high severity. No EPSS data is available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting current exploitation activity is unclear. Inferences from the description imply that exploitation requires authenticated access, but it can be performed by any low‑privilege user who has session credentials. Once the injection is achieved, the attacker can read privileged data such as administrator passwords and potentially achieve further compromise.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest FilePress release that includes validation for the asc parameter and uses parameterized queries.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, modify filelist.php to enforce a strict whitelist for asc values or remove the ability to pass custom ORDER BY clauses.
  • Restrict filelisting functionality to privileged users only, or disable direct access to the filelist.php endpoint for unauthenticated or low‑privilege accounts.
