CVE-2024-7458 is a medium-severity Path Traversal: 'dir/../../filename' (CWE-27) vulnerability in Eladmin Eladmin. Its CVSS base score is 5.1 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 45% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
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.

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.
Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and path sanitization that prevent directory traversal flaws.
Vulnerability identification processes will discover path traversal weaknesses during code or configuration review.
Least-privilege file permissions and access enforcement can limit the damage from a successful traversal.
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.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure coding standards require neutralizing '../' sequences and using safe file APIs, eliminating this exact weakness.
Security testing in development catches path-traversal flaws before release but does not itself implement the control.
Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and path sanitization that directly prevents directory traversal.
Application security requirements include explicit rules for safe file-path handling and canonicalization.
Secure architecture principles discourage unsafe path construction but do not prescribe the specific coding fix.
Information access restriction can limit which files are reachable, reducing impact but not preventing the traversal vector.
