Vulnerability Data

Agnai is an artificial-intelligence-agnostic multi-user, mult-bot roleplaying chat system. A vulnerability in versions prior to 1.0.330 permits attackers to upload arbitrary files to attacker-chosen locations on the server, including JavaScript, enabling the execution of commands within those files. This issue…

could result in unauthorized access, full server compromise, data leakage, and other critical security threats. This does not affect `agnai.chat`, installations using S3-compatible storage, or self-hosting that is not publicly exposed. This does affect publicly hosted installs without S3-compatible storage. Version 1.0.330 fixes this vulnerability.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Input validation directly neutralizes path sequences so the traversal cannot be introduced or exploited.

Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.

Enforces access authorizations on the resulting pathname, blocking traversal attempts from succeeding.

Enforces information flow rules that stop unauthorized directory escapes via crafted paths.

Least privilege reduces the impact of any successful traversal by limiting accessible resources.

Least functionality restricts the file types and automatic processing capabilities the system will accept.

Restricting execution of unauthorized software directly blocks dangerous uploaded files from running.

Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and path sanitization that neutralize traversal sequences.

Hardened configuration baselines can enforce allowed file types and processing rules.

finds

Security testing in development can detect path-traversal flaws before release.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates input validation and path-handling controls that directly mitigate path traversal.

prevents

Application security requirements include rules for safe file-path construction and canonicalization.

prevents

Secure architecture principles require proper directory restrictions and input sanitization to prevent traversal.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe path concatenation and mandate canonicalization routines.

mitigates

Information access restriction limits file reachability but does not address the input-validation flaw itself.
