Technical details
The vulnerability is a classic path traversal (CWE-22) in the POST /plugins/* endpoint within internal/plugin/native/manager.go. The endpoint constructs a temporary directory path by directly concatenating user-supplied plugin names without proper validation, allowing attackers to inject path traversal sequences (e.g., ../../) that escape the intended plugin directory. When the deferred cleanup operation calls os.RemoveAll on the traversed path, arbitrary directories outside the plugin folder are deleted. The attack requires authentication/access to the management API on port 9081 and is constrained to file/directory deletion only. Patches are available in eKuiper version 2.4.1 and later, which enforce input validation using validate.ValidateID and path.VerifyFileName functions.
