Technical details

The exportModelSql API endpoint in packages/api/src/controllers/databaseConnections.js passes an attacker-controlled outputFile parameter directly to fs.writeFile() without path validation, enabling path traversal attacks. An unauthenticated remote attacker can write SQL export content to any filesystem path by manipulating the outputFile argument, with no authentication or user interaction required. The vulnerability exists in versions up to 7.3.1.
