Description

Details

The /api/file/readDir interface was used to traverse and retrieve the file names of all documents under a notebook.

Impact

Directory traversal vulnerability: The entire directory structure of a notebook could be obtained, and then a file reading vulnerability could be exploited to achieve arbitrary document reading.
