Details
Summary
CVE-2023-45868 is a directory traversal vulnerability affecting the Learning Module in ILIAS 7.25. With basic user privileges, an attacker can exploit this network-based issue and move confidential directories to publicly accessible locations, leading to a total loss of confidentiality and potential denial of service. The attacker manipulates POST requests during the creation of an exercise unit, modifying old_name and new_name parameters, allowing them to access sensitive resources. Notably, the relocated directory renders all its files unavailable after exploitation.
