1.2.43
CVE-2024-51747 describes a critical Arbitrary File Access vulnerability affecting Kanboard project management software versions up to 1.2.42. An authenticated administrator can exploit this flaw to read and delete arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to complete data compromise. The vulnerability stems from insecure handling of file paths within the project database, allowing for path traversal attacks. A fix is available in version 1.2.42.
This vulnerability poses a significant risk to Kanboard deployments. An attacker, once authenticated as an administrator, can leverage path traversal techniques to access and delete any file accessible by the web server process. This includes sensitive configuration files, database backups, and potentially even system files. The impact extends beyond simple data theft; an attacker could potentially gain complete control over the server by modifying critical system files or executing arbitrary code through file inclusion vulnerabilities. The ability to delete files also allows for denial-of-service attacks and data destruction, severely disrupting project management operations.
CVE-2024-51747 was publicly disclosed on 2024-11-11. There is currently no indication of active exploitation in the wild, but the ease of exploitation and the critical severity warrant immediate attention. No KEV listing exists as of this writing. Public proof-of-concept code is likely to emerge given the vulnerability's nature and the lack of authentication requirements beyond admin access.
Organizations utilizing Kanboard for project management, particularly those running versions prior to 1.2.42, are at risk. This includes small to medium-sized businesses relying on Kanboard's Kanban methodology and potentially shared hosting environments where Kanboard instances are deployed alongside other applications, increasing the risk of cross-site contamination.
• php / web:
find /var/www/kanboard -type f -name 'sqlite.db' -print• php / web: Check Kanboard version using php -v and verify it's below 1.2.42.
• php / web: Monitor web server access logs for requests containing '../' sequences in the file path.
• php / web: Review Kanboard project database for unusual file paths associated with project files.

The primary mitigation is to immediately upgrade Kanboard to version 1.2.42 or later. If upgrading is not immediately feasible due to compatibility issues or downtime constraints, consider implementing temporary workarounds. Restrict file upload permissions to the Kanboard user account, minimizing the potential attack surface. Implement strict input validation on all file paths used within the application to prevent path traversal attempts. Monitor web server access logs for suspicious file access patterns, particularly requests containing directory traversal sequences (e.g., '../'). After upgrading, verify the fix by attempting to access a file outside the intended project directory through the file attachment feature; access should be denied.
Mettez à jour Kanboard à la version 1.2.42 ou supérieure. Cette version contient la correction pour la vulnérabilité de lecture et de suppression arbitraires de fichiers. La mise à jour peut être effectuée via le panneau d'administration de Kanboard ou en téléchargeant la dernière version du logiciel et en remplaçant les fichiers existants.
