CVE-2022-2265
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe Identity and Directory Management System developed by Çekino Bilgi Teknolojileri before version 2.1.25 has an unauthenticated Path traversal vulnerability. This has been fixed in the version 2.1.25
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceThe Identity and Directory Management System from Çekino Bilgi Teknolojileri versions before 2.1.25 contains an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability. Attackers can manipulate file path inputs using '../' sequences to access files outside the web root directory, potentially exposing sensitive system files, configuration data, or other confidential information without any authentication credentials.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the installed version of Identity And Directory Management SystemLocate the application's version file, about page, or query the application's API/health endpoint to retrieve the current version number. Common locations include version.txt, a /about endpoint, or the application header/footer.Affected if The installed version is lower than 2.1.25 (e.g., 2.1.24, 2.1.0, 1.x.x).
-
Confirm the web service is accessibleVerify that the Identity and Directory Management System web interface is running and reachable. Check if the application is listening on its HTTP/HTTPS port and accessible to users or attackers.Affected if The web service is running and accessible, either internally or externally.
-
Identify file download or file serving endpointsReview the application's URL structure and look for endpoints that accept file path parameters, such as /download, /file, /getfile, /view, or similar functionality that retrieves files. Check the application's API documentation or proxy traffic to identify these endpoints.Affected if The application contains endpoints that accept user-supplied file paths without proper validation.
-
Review web server logs for path traversal attemptsExamine the web server access logs and application logs for requests containing '../' sequences in URL parameters, such as '..%2F' or '../etc/passwd'. Search for patterns indicating path traversal probes.Affected if Log entries show successful or attempted path traversal sequences targeting files outside the web root.
The environment is affected if the installed version is below 2.1.25 AND the application exposes a web interface with file path handling functionality accessible to unauthenticated users.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped2.1.25
Upgrade the software to version 2.1.25 or later to apply the vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible, implement strict input validation to reject path traversal sequences in all user-supplied file path parameters.
2.1.25
- Identify the current version of the Identity and Directory Management System deployed
- Obtain version 2.1.25 or later from Çekino Bilgi Teknolojileri
- Schedule a maintenance window for the upgrade
- Backup the current system configuration and database
- Deploy version 2.1.25 following the vendor's upgrade documentation
- Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number
- Test that the Path Traversal vulnerability is no longer exploitable
