CVE-2024-10902
Path Traversal in Dbgpt Db-Gpt 0.6.0
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2024-10902 is a critical-severity Path Traversal (CWE-22) vulnerability in Dbgpt Db-Gpt. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Data Obfuscation (T1001); ranked in the top 30% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as LLM Application Platforms; in the Supply Chain and Deployment risk domain.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

CVE-2024-10902, published on 2025-03-20, is an Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability with Path Traversal in eosphoros-ai/db-gpt version v0.6.0. The affected component is the web API endpoint `POST /v1/personal/agent/upload`, which fails to properly validate file paths, enabling attackers to write arbitrary files to any location on the victim's file system.
The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.8 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and is associated with CWE-22. Unauthorized remote attackers can exploit it with low complexity, no privileges, and no user interaction required. Exploitation allows uploading malicious files anywhere, potentially leading to remote code execution (RCE), such as by writing a malicious `__init__.py` file to Python's `/site-packages/` directory.
Mitigation details are available in the Huntr advisory at https://huntr.com/bounties/f7fbf76e-aa1c-4106-b007-e9579f4f7d5f.

V5.3.2
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces the intended directory access authorizations that path traversal would otherwise bypass.
Input validation directly neutralizes special path elements before pathname construction occurs.
Least privilege reduces the impact of any unauthorized file access obtained via traversal.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Patching/maintenance can remediate known path-traversal flaws in deployed software (partial prevention of exploitability) but does nothing to stop the coding defect from being introduced in the first place.
PR.AA-05 defines and reviews access policies but does not address code-level pathname neutralization, so neither direction prevents CWE-22.
