CVE-2025-59099

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The Access Manager uses the open-source CompactWebServer written in C#, which is vulnerable to path traversal. An attacker can access files on the system without authentication, including the SQLite database with badge information and PIN codes. Additionally, certain requests crash the server for about 60 seconds, which can be abused for denial of service.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes unauthorized access to sensitive data (badge info, PIN codes) and service disruption due to intentional server crashes. This can lead to physical security breaches and operational downtime.

Recommendation

Immediately update CompactWebServer to a patched version or replace it with a more secure server. Additionally, restrict access to trusted networks and monitor for unusual requests.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Access Manager is using the open source web server CompactWebServer written in C#. This web server is affected by a path traversal vulnerability, which allows an attacker to directly access files via simple GET requests without prior authentication. Hence, it is possible to retrieve all files stored on the file system, including the SQLite database Database.sq3, containing badge information and the corresponding PIN codes. Additionally, when trying to access certain files, the web server crashes and becomes unreachable for about 60 seconds. This can be abused to continuously send the request and cause denial of service.
