How to Fix CVE-2022-39345

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Github.com/flipped aurora/gin vue admin/server dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/server fixed: 2.5.4
Upgrade github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/server to 2.5.4
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/server

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2022-39345, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/flipped aurora/gin vue admin/server:

inspect dependencies for github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/server

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/flipped aurora/gin vue admin/server in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.5.4), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal'), where the product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. In Github.com/flipped aurora/gin vue admin/server, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Impact Gin-vue-admin < 2.5.4 has File upload vulnerabilities。 File upload vulnerabilities are when a web server allows users to upload files to its filesystem without sufficiently validating things like their name, type, contents, or size. Failing to properly enforce restrictions on these could mean that even a basic image upload function can be used to upload arbitrary and potentially dangerous files instead. This could even include server-side script files that enable remote code execution. ### Patches https://github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/pull/1264 ### Workarounds https://github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/pull/1264 ### References #1263 ### For more information The plugin installation function of Gin-Vue-Admin allows users to download zip packages from the plugin market and upload them for installation. This function has an arbitrary file upload vulnerability. A malicious attacker can upload a constructed zip package to traverse the directory and upload or overwrite arbitrary files on the server side. The affected code https://github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/blob/main/server/service/system/sys_auto_code.go line 880 called the `utils.Unzip` method ``` paths, err := utils.Unzip(GVAPLUGPINATH+file.Filename, GVAPLUGPINATH) paths = filterFile(paths) var webIndex = -1 var serverIndex = -1 for i := range paths { paths[i] = filepath.ToSlash(paths[i]) pathArr := strings.Split(paths[i], "/") ln := len(pathArr) if ln < 2 { continue } if pathArr[ln-2] == "server" && pathArr[ln-1] == "plugin" { serverIndex = i } if pathArr[ln-2] == "web" && pathArr[ln-1] == "plugin" { webIndex = i } } if webIndex == -1 && serverIndex == -1 { zap.L().Error("非标准插件,请按照文档自动迁移使用") return webIndex, serverIndex, errors.New("非标准插件,请按照文档自动迁移使用") } ... ``` The https://github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin/blob/main/server/utils/zip.go code defines the `utils.Unzip` method ``` //解压 func Unzip(zipFile string, destDir string) ([]string, error) { zipReader, err := zip.OpenReader(zipFile) var paths []string if err != nil { return []string{}, err } defer zipReader.Close() for _, f := range zipReader.File { fpath := filepath.Join(destDir, f.Name) paths = append(paths, fpath) if f.FileInfo().IsDir() { os.MkdirAll(fpath, os.ModePerm) ... ``` It can be analyzed that after uploading a zip compressed file, the `Unzip` method will be called to decompress the compressed file, and then judge whether the compressed file contains the fixed directory structure of server, web, and plugin. Whether the zip file is correct or not, it will be decompressed first. If the directory does not exist, it will be created automatically. Therefore, malicious zip packages can be constructed, and directory traversal can be performed during automatic decompression to upload or overwrite any file. Use the Zip Slip vulnerability to construct a malicious zip package with `../../../../` filenames, and upload the malicious zip package to trigger the vulnerability. ![1](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113822259/197387942-e40c188d-cff0-4da3-84ba-7ca670d9bf72.png) ![2](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113822259/197387956-cef8fd0d-978a-47ae-a65e-e28367f6a0b8.png)
