CVE-2025-40889 Details
Description
A path traversal vulnerability was discovered in the Time Machine functionality due to missing validation of two input parameters. An authenticated user with limited privileges, by issuing a specifically-crafted request, can potentially alter the structure and content of files in the /data folder, and/or affect their availability.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the Time Machine feature of Nozomi Networks Guardian and CMC versions prior to 25.2.0. This vulnerability arises from inadequate validation of two input parameters, allowing an authenticated user with limited privileges to manipulate the structure and content of files in the /data directory, potentially disrupting their availability.
Users are advised to upgrade to version 25.2.0 or later. Additionally, it is recommended to use internal firewall features to restrict access to the web management interface and to review and remove unnecessary accounts with access to it.
