• OpenAdmin
  • 🚨 Several vulnerabilities in user interface before v0.3.5

Today (Nov 7, 2024) we received our first vulnerability report affecting OpenPanel UI pages for FileManager, FixPermissions, and TimeZone. The issue involves path traversal and insufficient validation on these pages, which allows an authenticated OpenPanel user to access files within their own container as well as the OpenPanel UI container.

Please note that files from other users or the OS cannot be accessed with this.
