An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-40964 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40964/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40964/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-40964","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40964/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-40964","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fw9q-rwpp-xcw5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"TinyFileManager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers with admin credentials or via CSRF can use path traversal in the fullpath parameter to upload malicious files to arbitrary directories.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"tiny_file_manager","vendor":"prasathmani"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A Path Traversal vulnerability exists in TinyFileManager all version up to and including 2.4.6 that allows attackers to upload a file (with Admin credentials or with the CSRF vulnerability) with the \"fullpath\" parameter containing path traversal strings (../ and ..\\) in order to escape the server's intended working directory and write malicious files onto any directory on the computer.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2022-03-16","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2022-03-16","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"50828","stars":null,"title":"Tiny File Manager 2.4.6 - Remote Code Execution (RCE)"},{"date":"2025-06-20T05:30:05Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Z3R0space/CVE-2021-40964","stars":0,"title":"Tiny File Manager \u003c= 2.4.6 - Remote Code Execution (RCE)"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40964","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40965"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40961"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-09-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-40916","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in Tiny File Manager","id":"CVE-2022-45476","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Tiny File Manager","id":"CVE-2022-23044","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path Traversal in prasathmani/tinyfilemanager","id":"CVE-2022-1000","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-45010","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40965","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-15"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-12102","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-28"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers with admin credentials or via CSRF can use path traversal in the fullpath parameter to upload malicious files to arbitrary directories.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-40964/"}
