A weakness has been identified in SimStudioAI sim up to ed9b9ad83f1a7c61f4392787fb51837d34eeb0af. Affected by this issue is the function Import of the file apps/sim/app/api/files/upload/route.ts of the component HTML File Parser. Executing manipulation of the argument File can lead to unrestricted upload. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be exploited. This product operates on a rolling release basis, ensuring continuous delivery. Consequently, there are no version details for either affected or updated releases. This patch is called 45372aece5e05e04b417442417416a52e90ba174. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.

Weakness

The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.

Extended Description

Access control involves the use of several protection mechanisms such as:

When any mechanism is not applied or otherwise fails, attackers can compromise the security of the product by gaining privileges, reading sensitive information, executing commands, evading detection, etc. There are two distinct behaviors that can introduce access control weaknesses:

Potential Mitigations

  • Compartmentalize the system to have “safe” areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
  • Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
