Description
DriveLock Directory Traversal Information Disclosure Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of DriveLock. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the web service, which listens on TCP port 6067 by default. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of the service account. Was ZDI-CAN-28722.

AI Analysis

Impact

DriveLock Directory Traversal Information Disclosure Vulnerability permits remote attackers to read any file accessible to the service account via the web service on TCP port 6067. The flaw arises from missing validation of user-supplied paths before file operations, enabling disclosure of sensitive system files. Authentication is not required, so any host with network reach to the service can exploit the vulnerability.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects all installations of DriveLock that expose the web service on its default port 6067. No specific product versions are listed in the advisory, but the issue applies to the components referenced in the CNA advisory.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.5 signals high severity, indicating significant confidentiality impact if exploited. An EPSS score of 2% suggests a low but existent likelihood of exploitation in the wild. DriveLock is not present in the CISA KEV catalog, and no widespread exploitation reports are documented. The flaw can be triggered remotely by sending crafted HTTP requests to the vulnerable service; authentication is not required, so the attack can originate from any network host that can reach TCP port 6067.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Verify and apply any available DriveLock security patch or firmware update addressing the directory traversal issue.
  • Restrict network exposure of the DriveLock web service on TCP port 6067, for example by configuring firewalls or network segmentation to allow access only from trusted hosts.
  • If the application allows configuration, enforce strict path validation or otherwise limit file system access to a predefined directory tree to prevent traversal.
