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 has been found in hs-web hsweb-framework up to 5.0.1. The affected element is the function denied of the file hsweb-system/hsweb-system-file/src/main/java/org/hswebframework/web/file/FileUploadProperties.java of the component File Upload. The manipulation of the argument filename leads to path traversal. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of the patch is 8009845b577d8a2c4bbf4fdd8e8913799a714be6. It is suggested to install a patch to address this issue.

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

Version higher than 5.0.1 (e.g., 5.0.2 or later) that includes commit 8009845b577d8a2c4bbf4fdd8e8913799a714be6

  1. 1. Navigate to the hsweb-framework project repository at https://github.com/hs-web/hsweb-framework
  2. 2. Review the patch commit 8009845b577d8a2c4bbf4fdd8e8913799a714be6 to understand the code changes made to fix the path traversal vulnerability in FileUploadProperties.java
  3. 3. Identify the version that includes this fix (version higher than 5.0.1)
  4. 4. Update the project dependency to the fixed version in your build configuration (pom.xml or build.gradle)
  5. 5. Rebuild and redeploy the application with the updated dependency
  6. 6. Verify that the file upload functionality works correctly with the patched version
