The attack may be initiated remotely. The attack's complexity is rated as high. The exploitability is considered difficult. The exploit has been published and may be used. It is advisable to upgrade the affected component. The vendor was informed early about a total of four security issues and confirmed that those have been fixed. However, the release notes on GitHub do not mention them.
A vulnerability exists in Frappe LMS version 2.35.0, where improper access controls allow unauthenticated users to access files uploaded for assignments. This issue arises because files are stored in the '/files/' directory and are publicly accessible without authentication, contrary to the intended privacy between students and instructors. As a result, anyone can download these files if they know or can guess the file's URL.
It is recommended to enforce authentication and authorization checks on all file requests under '/files/'. Only authorized users, such as the file owner and course instructors, should be allowed to access assignment submissions. Additionally, uploaded files should be stored in a location that is not directly accessible via the web and served only after verifying permissions.
