No affected components available
Copyparty is a portable file server. Prior to 1.20.12, if an attacker has been given both read- and write-permissions to the server, they can upload a malicious file with the filename .prologue.html and then craft a link to potentially execute arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's context. Note that it is intended behavior that the JavaScript would execute if the target clicks a link to the HTML file itself; "https://example.com/foo/.prologue.html". The vulnerability is that "https://example.com/foo/?b" would also evaluate the file, making the behavior unexpected. There are existing preventative measures (strict SameSite cookies) which makes it harder to leverage this vulnerability in an attack; in order to gain control of the target's authenticated session, the link must be clicked from a page served by the server itself -- most likely by editing an existing resource, which would require additional access permissions. Finally, for this attack to be successful, the attacker's target must click the specific crafted link given by the attacker. This vulnerability is not activated by normally browsing the web-UI on the server. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.20.12.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is difficult for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability and may require special conditions. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. The attacker needs the user to perform some action, like clicking a link. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system. There is a low impact on the confidentiality of the information. There is a low impact on the integrity of the data.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
