Technical details
An information disclosure vulnerability (CWE-209/CWE-200) exists in WukongCRM 11.0 within the /adminFile/upload endpoint. The root cause is an improperly configured Data Transfer Object (DTO) layer that returns the full backend entity object to the frontend instead of a sanitized version. This results in the API response containing the 'absolute file path' of the uploaded file on the server. A remote attacker with low privileges (authenticated user) can exploit this to map the server's directory structure, facilitating secondary attacks such as path traversal or local file inclusion. A public PoC has been disclosed.
