Description
Budibase Server before 3.45.0 contains an arbitrary file write vulnerability in the PWA icon upload endpoint that extracts user-supplied ZIP archives without proper symlink validation. Attackers with BUILDER role can craft a malicious ZIP with leaf symlink entries followed by duplicate file entries to write arbitrary files as root, enabling remote code execution.
An arbitrary file write vulnerability has been identified in Budibase Server versions prior to 3.45.0. This issue resides in the PWA icon upload endpoint, which processes user-supplied ZIP archives without adequate validation of symlink entries. Attackers with the BUILDER role can create a malicious ZIP file containing leaf symlink entries followed by duplicate file entries, allowing them to write arbitrary files as root.
