HIGH

ALEAPP NQ Vault Artifact Parser Path Traversal

Title source: cna
STIX 2.1

Description

ALEAPP (Android Logs Events And Protobuf Parser) through 3.4.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the NQ_Vault.py artifact parser that uses attacker-controlled file_name_from values from a database directly as the output filename, allowing arbitrary file writes outside the report output directory. An attacker can embed a path traversal payload such as ../../../outside_written.bin in the database to write files to arbitrary locations, potentially achieving code execution by overwriting executable files or configuration.
