Technical details
A path traversal vulnerability exists in the QuestionnaireService.runDataExportNow function in Eleveo Quality Management 9.7.0, where the file_name parameter is not properly validated. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject path traversal sequences (e.g., ../) to access or export arbitrary files outside the intended directory. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication, and a proof-of-concept exploit is publicly available. No vendor patch has been released as the vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts.
