RiteCMS version 3.1.0 and below suffers from an arbitrary file overwrite via path traversal vulnerability in Admin Panel. Exploiting the vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to overwrite any file in the web root (along with any other file on the server that the PHP process user has the proper permissions to write) resulting a remote code execution.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
