Summary

CVE-2025-69770 is a critical-severity Path Traversal (CWE-22) vulnerability in Mojoportal (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 10.0 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 47th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

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.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-69770 is a zip slip vulnerability (CWE-22) affecting the /DesignTools/SkinList.aspx endpoint in MojoPortal CMS version 2.9.0.1. It enables attackers to execute arbitrary commands by uploading a specially crafted zip file. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 10.0 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating critical severity due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, lack of required privileges or user interaction, and potential for high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability with a change in scope.

Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network by submitting a malicious zip file to the affected endpoint. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary command execution on the server, potentially leading to full system compromise, data theft, or further lateral movement within the environment.

Advisories and release notes, available at the MojoPortal GitHub security page (https://github.com/i7MEDIA/mojoportal/security), a detailed writeup (https://github.com/kid-tnt/Mojo-check/blob/main/Zipslip%20in%20MojoPortal%20version%202.9.0.1.md), and the v2.9.1 release page (https://www.mojoportal.com/mojoportal-2-9-1), recommend updating to MojoPortal CMS version 2.9.1 or later to mitigate the issue.

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.

PR.PS-02 partial match
prevents

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 none match
prevents

PR.AA-05 defines and reviews access policies but does not address code-level pathname neutralization, so neither direction prevents CWE-22.

finds

Security testing in development catches path traversal via static/dynamic analysis.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates input validation and path sanitization that directly prevent path traversal.

prevents

Application security requirements include rules for safe file handling and canonicalization.

prevents

Secure architecture principles require least-privilege file access and directory isolation.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe path construction and mandate safe APIs.

mitigates

Information access restriction limits which files an application may read or write.
