Technical details

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the 'do_upload_others_images' function within 'application/modules/vendor/controllers/AddProduct.php'. The 'folder' POST parameter is concatenated directly into a filesystem path without sanitization or canonicalization, allowing an authenticated vendor to use traversal sequences (e.g., '..\..\') to escape the intended 'attachments/shop_images/' directory. While the application enforces image extension filters, an attacker can still create directories and write files to any writable path reachable via relative traversal, such as 'application/cache'. This can lead to application state corruption or be chained with other vulnerabilities. A patch (commit de1c9e7) has been released which implements 'basename()' sanitization on the affected parameters.
