Summary
CyberPanel 2.4.3 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the file manager component that allows authenticated attackers to read sensitive system files by uploading a crafted ZIP archive containing symbolic links. The application fails to validate symlinks before extraction, allowing symbolic links targeting arbitrary filesystem paths outside the user's home directory to persist and be accessed through the web interface.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker can read sensitive system files, such as configuration files, passwords, or keys, potentially leading to full system compromise.
Recommendation
Apply the fix available in commit eca0c3c or upgrade CyberPanel to a patched version. Additionally, restrict file manager access to trusted users only.
