External Control of File Name or Path in h2oai/h2o-3

  • Disclosed: 14.12.2023
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 12:20

Remote unauthenticated attackers can overwrite arbitrary server files with attacker-controllable data. The data that the attacker can control is not entirely arbitrary. h2o writes a CSV/XLS/etc file to disk, so the attacker data is wrapped in quotations and starts with "C1", if they're exporting as CSV.
