CVE-2018-25393: Navigate CMS 2.8.5 Path Traversal via navigate_download.php

Navigate CMS 2.8.5 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows authenticated users to download arbitrary files by injecting directory traversal sequences in the id parameter. Attackers can send GET requests to navigate_download.php with path traversal payloads ../../../cfg/globals.php to access sensitive configuration files and system files outside the intended directory.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Navigate CMS 2.8.5 can let a logged-in user download files outside the intended download area. The main business risk is exposure of sensitive configuration or system files, which may reveal credentials or operational details. The provided sources do not show confirmed active exploitation. Exposure is limited to organizations running Navigate CMS 2.8.5, especially internet-facing instances with authenticated user access. The bundle does not identify other affected versions or products. Treat as high priority if Navigate CMS 2.8.5 is deployed. The issue can expose confidential files with only authenticated access, and public exploit material is referenced. Prioritize containment, vendor guidance review, and credential exposure assessment. Mitigation focus: Identify and prioritize all Navigate CMS 2.8.5 deployments.; Check Navigate CMS and advisory guidance for an official fixed version or workaround.; Restrict Navigate CMS access to trusted networks and least-privilege authenticated users..
