JEEWMS Local File Inclusion Scanner

JEEWMS is a widely used management software that helps organizations efficiently manage enterprise resources and data. It allows users to store, analyze, and manage information effectively across various departments. The software is commonly integrated into business processes to streamline operations, increase productivity, and improve data management. Organizations prefer JEEWMS for its robust features, scalability, and user-friendly interface. It is typically used by medium to large enterprises looking to digitalize their resource management strategies. The software is critical in ensuring that businesses can maintain systematic records and facilitate smooth work processes.

Local File Inclusion (LFI) is a critical security vulnerability that allows attackers to access files on the server. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker can include files residing on the server, which may lead to data breaches or unauthorized access. LFI vulnerabilities are a common result of improper input validation in web applications. Attackers leverage LFI to view files and directories on a server, often seeking sensitive information like password files or system configurations. Without proper mitigation, LFI can be further exploited to execute commands and potentially gain full control over the server.

The technical details of the vulnerability involve endpoint misuse within JEEWMS that allows for Local File Inclusion. Specifically, the endpoint <code>/systemController/showOrDownByurl.do?down=&dbPath=</code> is susceptible to tampering with parameters that provide access to local files. The vulnerable parameter 'dbPath' does not correctly validate user input, allowing attackers to include file paths such as <code>../../../../../../etc/passwd</code> for Linux systems or <code>../Windows/win.ini</code> for Windows systems. By exploiting these weaknesses, sensitive file information can be disclosed, risking data confidentiality and system integrity.

If the vulnerability is exploited by malicious individuals, it can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive files, including system configuration files and confidential data. The information gleaned can be used for further exploits, such as unauthorized system access or privilege escalation. Additionally, successful exploitation might allow attackers to conduct remote code execution or manipulation of critical application functionalities. The leakage of sensitive data could also lead to severe reputational damage and financial loss.
