Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory in Advanced Plugins - Image: WebP, Compress, Zoom, Lazy load, Alt & More module for PrestaShop

  • Disclosed: 20.07.2023

In the module “Image: WebP, Compress, Zoom, Lazy load, Alt & More” (ultimateimagetool) in versions up to 2.1.02 from Advanced Plugins for PrestaShop, a guest can download personal information without restriction by performing a path traversal attack.

Due to a lack of control in the path name construction, a guest can perform a path traversal to view all files on the information system.

Note : The author has deleted from its module the file that have been suffering from this leak for months, BUT did not set it to be “auto-deleted” during upgrades. Therefore, there are likely merchants out there with older versions who have updated their modules thinking they are safe. However, there is nothing safe about this since past upgrades do not auto-delete the implicated file. To ensure everyone has a “safe version”, we decided to mark all versions up to 2.1.02 as impacted by this issue.

WARNING : We are forced to tag it as a medium gravity due to the CWE type 22 but be warned that on our ecosystem, it must be considered critical since it unlocks hundreds admin’s ajax script of modules due to the behaviour of PrestaShop core Tools::hash() method
