HTTP: dotCMS CMSFilter assets Access Control Weakness
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against dotCMS content management system. A successful attack can lead to directory traversal and arbitrary code execution.
Extended Description
dotCMS before 5.2.4 is vulnerable to directory traversal, leading to incorrect access control. It allows an attacker to read or execute files under $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/ROOT/assets (which should be a protected directory). Additionally, attackers can upload temporary files (e.g., .jsp files) into /webapps/ROOT/assets/tmp_upload, which can lead to remote command execution (with the permissions of the user running the dotCMS application).
