CVE-2025-67506
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 · uneditedPipesHub is a fully extensible workplace AI platform for enterprise search and workflow automation. Versions prior to 0.1.0-beta expose POST /api/v1/record/buffer/convert through missing authentication. The endpoint accepts a file upload and converts it to PDF via LibreOffice by uploading payload to os.path.join(tmpdir, file.filename) without normalizing the filename. An attacker can submit a crafted filename containing ../ sequences to write arbitrary files anywhere the service account has permission, enabling remote file overwrite or planting malicious code. This issue is fixed in version 0.1.0-beta.
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 confidencePipesHub versions prior to 0.1.0-beta lack authentication on the /api/v1/record/buffer/convert endpoint, which accepts file uploads and converts them to PDF via LibreOffice. The endpoint writes uploaded files using os.path.join(tmpdir, file.filename) without normalizing the filename, allowing path traversal via ../ sequences to write arbitrary files anywhere the service account has permissions.

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 Pipeshub installation and versionRun 'pip show pipeshub' or check the application's version file/documentation to determine the installed version of PipeshubAffected if The installed version matches 0.1.0, 0.1.2, or 0.1.3, or falls before the patched version 0.1.0-beta
-
Confirm the vulnerable endpoint existsAttempt to access or probe the /api/v1/record/buffer/convert endpoint via HTTP request (e.g., curl or similar tool) to verify it is available in the deploymentAffected if The endpoint responds, indicating it is exposed and the application has this functionality enabled
-
Verify authentication is not enforced on the endpointSend a request to /api/v1/record/buffer/convert without providing any authentication credentials (Authorization header, session cookie, etc.) and observe if the request is processedAffected if The endpoint accepts and processes requests without requiring authentication credentials
-
Check for filename sanitization in upload handlingIf source code is accessible, inspect the file upload handler for the convert endpoint and look for filename normalization (such as os.path.normpath, basename extraction, or allowlist validation) before os.path.join operationsAffected if No filename sanitization is present and the code directly uses file.filename in os.path.join without validation
The environment is affected if Pipeshub version 0.1.0, 0.1.2, or 0.1.3 is running with the /api/v1/record/buffer/convert endpoint exposed and accessible without authentication, and the uploaded filename is not sanitized before being used in file path operations.

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 · scopedUpgrade to version 0.1.0-beta or implement authentication on the endpoint and add filename normalization/sanitization to prevent path traversal attacks.
0.1.0-beta
- 1. Back up your current Pipeshub installation and any custom configurations.
- 2. Identify your current Pipeshub version (0.1.0, 0.1.2, or 0.1.3) by checking the running service or deployment configuration.
- 3. Upgrade to version 0.1.0-beta which contains the security fix for the path traversal vulnerability.
- 4. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version after deployment.
- 5. Test that the POST /api/v1/record/buffer/convert endpoint now properly authenticates requests and sanitizes filenames.
- 6. Ensure LibreOffice conversion functionality continues to work correctly with legitimate file uploads.
