Directory traversal vulnerability in Enriva Development Magellan Explorer 3.32 build 2305 and earlier allows remote FTP servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a filename. NOTE: this can be leveraged for code execution by writing to a Startup folder.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Magellan Explorer can be tricked by a remote FTP server into writing files outside the intended download location. If the vulnerable client is still used, a hostile or compromised FTP server could overwrite sensitive files and potentially cause code execution. This is a legacy issue with no evidence of active exploitation in the provided sources. Exposure is limited to endpoints where Magellan Explorer 3.32 build 2305 or earlier is installed and used to connect to FTP servers, especially untrusted or externally controlled servers. Modern environments are unlikely to be exposed unless this legacy client remains in use. Treat as high priority only if the legacy client is present. The impact can be serious, but exposure should be narrow in most modern environments. Prioritize discovery, removal, and replacement over emergency response unless affected systems are confirmed. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for Magellan Explorer installations and versions.; Remove or replace Magellan Explorer if business use is not required.; Avoid connecting vulnerable clients to untrusted FTP servers..
