A vulnerability was found in javahongxi whatsmars 2021.4.0. It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is the function initialize of the file /whatsmars-archetypes/whatsmars-initializr/src/main/java/org/hongxi/whatsmars/initializr/controller/InitializrController.java. The manipulation of the argument artifactId leads to path traversal. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
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.
