Technical details

The backup restoration mechanism fails to validate file paths, types, integrity, and authenticity before extracting TGZ archives, allowing a specially crafted backup to contain arbitrary attacker-controlled files. An attacker with access to the configured SFTP backup repository can provide a malicious archive that places files on the Linux system with permissions allowing arbitrary code execution as root. The lack of enforced backup passwords further reduces protection.
