AI Analysis

Impact

A path traversal vulnerability was found in the Ueditor Upload Interface of ShopXO. By manipulating the path_type argument in the config/ueditor.php file, an attacker can cause the application to resolve file paths outside the intended upload directory. This flaw allows remote attackers to read, modify, or delete files on the server, potentially leading to data disclosure or code execution depending on the files accessed. The vulnerability is exploitable over a network, and the public exploit code is available.

Affected Systems

ShopXO versions up to 2.2.7 are affected. The issue resides in the open‑source component Ueditor used by the ShopXO e‑commerce platform. Admins in these installations are at risk if the upload interface is exposed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS v3.1 score of 6.9 indicates a high‑to‑medium severity. Although no EPSS score is available, the fact that the exploit is publicly available suggests a relatively high likelihood of real‑world attacks. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, but the path traversal flaw is a classic example of CWE‑22. The attack vector is remote over HTTP; any user with access to the Ueditor upload endpoint can trigger the traversal.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade ShopXO to a version that resolves the path traversal issue (at least 2.2.8 or the latest release).
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the Ueditor upload interface or restrict it to trusted administrators.
  • Implement input validation on the path_type parameter to reject directory traversal characters and enforce a whitelist of allowed paths.
  • Monitor web server logs for suspicious file read or delete attempts and investigate any unauthorized access attempts.
