CVE-2023-43177: CrushFTP < 10.5.1 - Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution

id: CVE-2023-43177

info:
  name: CrushFTP < 10.5.1 - Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution
  author: iamnoooob,rootxharsh,pdresearch
  severity: critical
  description: |
    CrushFTP prior to 10.5.1 is vulnerable to Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can manipulate dynamically-determined object attributes to create arbitrary files in the web interface directory, potentially achieving remote code execution and compromising the entire CrushFTP file transfer server.
  remediation: |
    Update CrushFTP to version 10.5.1 or later that properly controls modification of object attributes and prevents arbitrary file creation through the WebInterface API.
