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
External Control of File Name or Path, : Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in Olgu Computer Systems e-Belediye allows Manipulating Web Input to File System Calls. This issue affects e-Belediye: before 2.0.642.

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 · moderate confidence

Critical path traversal vulnerability in Olgu Computer Systems e-Belediye allows attackers to manipulate web input to access or write arbitrary files on the filesystem. Combined with incorrect permission assignments for critical resources, this vulnerability enables unauthenticated users to potentially read sensitive system files, overwrite configuration, or achieve remote code execution.

MitigationUpgrade to e-Belediye version 2.0.642 or later to remediate. If patching is not immediately feasible, implement strict input validation on all file-handling parameters, restrict file system permissions, and disable directory traversal capabilities at the web server level.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm e-Belediye installation
    Review your web application inventory or search for e-Belediye components in your environment. Check for any Olgu Computer Systems software running on servers.
    Affected if The software e-Belediye by Olgu Computer Systems is present in your environment.
  2. Identify e-Belediye version
    Locate the installed version of e-Belediye. This may be found in the application about page, in configuration files, or via the application's administrative interface. Compare your version to the fixed release 2.0.642.
    Affected if The installed version of e-Belediye is lower than 2.0.642.
  3. Check if web-facing file handling is enabled
    Examine the application's configuration or feature set to determine if file upload, file download, or file display functionalities are accessible via the web interface. Review URL patterns that accept file path parameters.
    Affected if File handling features are exposed through the web interface and accessible without authentication.
  4. Review file system permissions on application directories
    Inspect the file system permissions assigned to the web application directories, particularly those used for file storage, configuration, or temporary files. Verify if the application process has overly broad read or write access.
    Affected if The application or web server process has permissions that allow reading sensitive system files or writing to directories outside the intended web root.

Your environment is affected if e-Belediye versions before 2.0.642 are installed and the web-facing file handling functionality is accessible with incorrect file system permissions.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade to e-Belediye version 2.0.642 or later to remediate. If patching is not immediately feasible, implement strict input validation on all file-handling parameters, restrict file system permissions, and disable directory traversal capabilities at the web server level.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

e-Belediye version 2.0.642 or later

  1. Contact Olgu Computer Systems to obtain the latest e-Belediye version 2.0.642 or later which contains the security fix
  2. Schedule a maintenance window for the upgrade process
  3. Backup the current e-Belediye database and configuration files before proceeding
  4. Apply the upgrade following Olgu Computer Systems' official upgrade documentation
  5. Verify the installation by checking that the web application functions correctly
  6. Validate that the path traversal vulnerability is remediated by testing file access restrictions
