NetSupport Manager vulnerabilities

NetSupport Manager < 14.12.0001 contains an arbitrary file write vulnerability in its Connectivity Server/Gateway PUTFILE request handler. An attacker with a valid Gateway Key can supply a crafted filename containing directory traversal sequences to write files to arbitrary locations on the server. This can be leveraged to place attacker-controlled DLLs or executables in privileged paths and achieve remote code execution in the context of the NetSupport Manager connectivity service.

NetSupport Manager before 14.12.0001 relies on a shared Gateway Key for authentication. The key is stored using a reversible encoding scheme, allowing an attacker with access to a client configuration file to recover the key and gain unauthorized access to connectivity services and remote control of systems.

NetSupport Manager < 14.12.0001 contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in its Connectivity Server/Gateway HTTPS request handling. The server evaluates request URIs using an unsanitized SQLite query against the FileLinks table in gateway.db. By injecting SQL through the LinkName/URI value, a remote attacker can control the FileName field used by the server to read and return files from disk, resulting in arbitrary local file disclosure.
