CVE-2012-1467: Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in the iBrowser plugin library, as used in Open Journal System...

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in the iBrowser plugin library, as used in Open Journal Systems before 2.3.7, allow remote authenticated users to (1) delete or (2) rename arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the param parameter to lib/pkp/lib/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/ibrowser/scripts/rfiles.php.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Older Open Journal Systems installations included an iBrowser plugin flaw that could let a logged-in remote user delete or rename files outside the intended directory. The business risk is highest where legacy OJS systems are internet-facing and allow untrusted or broadly provisioned authenticated accounts. Exposure is most likely in legacy Open Journal Systems deployments older than 2.3.7 that still include the TinyMCE iBrowser plugin path and permit remote authenticated user access. Prioritize remediation for any internet-facing legacy OJS system with many user accounts. The flaw can affect file integrity and availability, but current exploitation is not confirmed in the supplied sources. Mitigation focus: Inventory Open Journal Systems instances and confirm exact versions.; Upgrade OJS versions older than 2.3.7 according to vendor guidance.; Restrict authenticated access to trusted users until remediation is complete..
