Summary
copyparty contains a volume restriction bypass vulnerability in its SFTP front end that allows authenticated SFTP users to create, remove, and truncate arbitrary paths outside permitted volume boundaries by exploiting three handlers that bypass the xvol volflag enforcement.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker can manipulate files outside their permissions, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or corruption.
Recommendation
Update copyparty to a patched version. Also review volume and SFTP permission configurations and monitor user activity.
Other vulnerabilities in copyparty
See all- CVE-2023-38501Medium
The copyparty file server software prior to version 1.8.7 contains a reflected XSS vulnerability via URL parameters `?k304=...` and `?setck=...`. This can lead to moving or deleting existing files on the server, as well as uploading new files using the account of the person who clicks the malicious link.
- CVE-2023-37474High
Copyparty is a portable file server that is vulnerable to a path traversal attack in the `.cpr` subfolder in versions prior to 1.8.2. This attack allows access to files, directories, and commands outside the web document root directory.
- CVE-2026-70657Medium
Copyparty is a portable file server. Prior to 1.20.17, copyparty volumes with the dk or dks directory-key flag combined with the fk or fka file-key flag can convert a valid file key into a directory key, granting read access to the containing folder. This vulnerability was only reachable if both types of keys (filekeys and dirkeys) were manually enabled in the volume flags simultaneously. This issue is fixed in version 1.20.17.
Original NVD description (English source)
copyparty contains a volume restriction bypass vulnerability in its SFTP front end that allows authenticated SFTP users to create, remove, and truncate arbitrary paths outside permitted volume boundaries by exploiting three handlers that bypass the xvol volflag enforcement. The _mkdir, _rmdir, and _chattr handlers construct destination paths using vfs.get(), vn.canonical(), and os.path.join() without invoking the chk_ap access check, enabling attackers to traverse symlinks leaving a volume's top directory and perform unauthorized file creation, deletion, or truncation via SSH_FXP_SETSTAT operations on paths outside any volume the account is authorized to access.
