Description
draw.io is a configurable diagramming and whiteboarding application. Prior to version 30.2.7, src/main/java/com/mxgraph/online/ExportProxyServlet.java uses request.getPathInfo() to build a proxyPath and appends it directly to EXPORT_URL without rejecting dot segments or confirming that the normalized destination remains under the configured export path. An unauthenticated request containing traversal segments can therefore address unintended routes on the internal export server, and the servlet forwards all request headers and the request body to that destination, allowing arbitrary header injection. Depending on the export service configuration, exploitation can expose administration, debugging, health, or configuration endpoints and can permit unintended internal actions. This issue is fixed in version 30.2.7.

AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw in draw.io’s ExportProxyServlet permits arbitrary path traversal by appending unsanitized path segments to an internal export URL. This bypasses intended boundaries and lets an unauthenticated user reach any internal endpoint, including administrative, debugging, or configuration services, and inject arbitrary headers into the forwarded request. The weakness is a classic directory traversal exposed by CWE-22 and results in unauthorized internal information exposure and potential internal actions.

Affected Systems

Versions of draw.io up to and including 30.2.6 are affected, as the vulnerability exists before the supplier released version 30.2.7 where the logic was corrected. The product is jgraph:drawio. Any deployment of the desktop or web versions prior to the patched release is vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 3.7 indicates moderate severity, and the EPSS score is presently undisclosed. Because the attack requires only an unauthenticated HTTP request to the ExportProxyServlet, exploitation is straightforward for anyone with network access to the application. Although not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, organizations should still consider this a risk due to the potential exposure of sensitive internal endpoints.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to draw.io version 30.2.7 or later to apply the vendor fix.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, restrict requests to the ExportProxyServlet from trusted IP ranges or block it using firewall rules to prevent external access.
  • If the proxy feature is not required, disable or remove the ExportProxyServlet component entirely to eliminate the vulnerable path.
