Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-27222 is a path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22, CWE-35) in TRUfusion Enterprise through version 7.10.4.0. The affected component is the /trufusionPortal/getCobrandingData endpoint, which retrieves files but fails to properly sanitize input. This allows inclusion of path traversal sequences, enabling retrieval of any local server file accessible by the TRUfusion user, including cleartext passwords stored by TRUfusion Enterprise itself. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.6 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N).
Unauthenticated attackers with network access can exploit this vulnerability with low attack complexity and no user interaction. Exploitation involves sending crafted requests to the endpoint, achieving high-impact confidentiality violations in a scoped manner by reading arbitrary accessible files. This includes sensitive data like TRUfusion Enterprise passwords, potentially enabling further compromise such as lateral movement or privilege escalation depending on file contents and server permissions.

Vulnerability Data
TRUfusion Enterprise through 7.10.4.0 uses the /trufusionPortal/getCobrandingData endpoint to retrieve files. However, the application doesn't properly sanitize the input to this endpoint, ultimately allowing path traversal sequences to be included. This can be used to read any local server file…

that is accessible by the TRUfusion user and can also be used to leak cleartext passwords of TRUfusion Enterprise itself.

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

Security testing in development catches path traversal via static/dynamic analysis.
Secure SDLC mandates input validation and path sanitization that directly prevent path traversal.
Application security requirements include rules for safe file handling and canonicalization.
Secure architecture principles require least-privilege file access and directory isolation.
Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe path construction and mandate safe APIs.
Information access restriction limits which files an application may read or write.
