Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow Remote Code Execution (CVE-2024-25153)



Application Details

Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow is a web portal used to transfer files of all sizes, including  terabytes. Allowing users to store files in the organization’s local storage or private cloud for collaboration.


Vulnerability

A critical Unsafe File Upload and Directory Traversal vulnerability in Fortra FileCatalyst allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to gain Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the web server.


Identification

A directory traversal within the ‘ftpservlet’ of the FileCatalyst Workflow Web Portal allows files to be uploaded outside of the intended ‘uploadtemp’ directory with a specially crafted POST request. In situations where a file is successfully uploaded to web portal’s DocumentRoot, specially crafted JSP files could be used to execute code, including web shells.

           DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(in);
           String disr = dis.readLine();
           while ( disr != null ) {
              out.println(disr);
              disr = dis.readLine();
           }
         }
         %>
