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 · unedited
A vulnerability in the `upload_app` function of parisneo/lollms-webui V12 (Strawberry) allows an attacker to delete any file or directory on the system. The function does not implement user input filtering with the `filename` value, causing a Path Traversal error.

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
How this class of weakness works · CWE-22

A file path is built from user input without being confined, so sequences like “../” let an attacker step outside the intended directory. That can expose configuration, credentials, or source code, and in the worst case lets an attacker write files where they shouldn't. A durable fix resolves and canonicalises the path, then rejects anything that escapes a known-safe base directory.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Any version after V12 (e.g., V13 or later stable release)

  1. 1. Ensure you have a complete backup of your Lollms Web Ui installation and any critical data
  2. 2. Navigate to your Lollms Web Ui installation directory
  3. 3. Check the current version to confirm you are on version 12: `git describe --tags` or check version file
  4. 4. Fetch the latest changes from the repository: `git fetch origin`
  5. 5. Pull the latest version which includes the fix from commit dcc078cbe20d2a9640b0942a622134b0e3fa6e48
  6. 6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version again
  7. 7. Restart the Lollms Web Ui service to apply changes
  8. 8. Test that the upload_app function works correctly with valid inputs
Caveat Review release notes for any breaking changes between V12 and the target version; consider testing in a non-production environment first
