KLog Server is a product developed by Komtera Technologies. It is used for logging and managing system data across networks. The product is deployed in various environments to assist organizations in monitoring server activity. KLog Server processes web input to handle file system calls and log events. It is commonly used by system administrators and security professionals to track and respond to network incidents. KLog Server versions before 3.1.1 are susceptible to certain vulnerabilities that can affect system security.

The Path Traversal vulnerability in KLog Server occurs when an attacker is able to manipulate input data to traverse directories outside of the intended restricted directory. This issue can allow an attacker to access sensitive files on the server. It is triggered by a weakness in how the server processes file paths, potentially leading to unauthorized file exposure. The vulnerability affects KLog Server versions prior to 3.1.1. The risk becomes apparent when an attacker attempts to access sensitive files such as "/etc/passwd".

The vulnerability arises when the server fails to properly sanitize input provided by users during web requests. For example, an attacker can manipulate the "file" parameter in the "download.php" endpoint to include relative paths that access system files outside of the intended directory. This is an issue with how the server handles pathnames. The exploitation of this vulnerability could give attackers unauthorized access to critical system files, which can compromise the security of the system.

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker to view or download sensitive system files like "/etc/passwd", which may contain critical information such as user credentials. This can lead to further attacks, such as privilege escalation, credential theft, or other forms of system compromise. Malicious users could also gain access to configuration files and other sensitive data stored on the server, potentially leading to data breaches. If the vulnerability is left unpatched, attackers could exploit it to damage system integrity or perform unauthorized actions.
