CVE-2026-42099

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Sparx Pro Cloud Server is vulnerable to a Race Condition in the /data_api/dl_internal_artifact.php endpoint. The application downloads the properties of the object pointed by guid parameter and saves loaded content in current location (__DIR__) under the specified name. An attacker with repository access can control both the filename and file contents, allowing the creation of a malicious PHP file in a current directory. Although the file is deleted after processing, a race condition exists: if the response transmission is delayed (e.g., via a large file or slow client connection), the file remains accessible. During this window, the attacker can issue a second request to execute the malicious PHP file, resulting in remote code execution. The vendor was notified early about this vulnerability, but didn't respond with the details of vulnerability or vulnerable version range. Only version 6.1 (build 167) and below were tested and confirmed as vulnerable, other versions were not tested and might also be vulnerable.

      "value": "Sparx Pro Cloud Server es vulnerable a una condición de carrera en el endpoint /data_api/dl_internal_artifact.php. La aplicación descarga las propiedades del objeto apuntado por el parámetro guid y guarda el contenido cargado en la ubicación actual (__DIR__) bajo el nombre especificado. Un atacante con acceso al repositorio puede controlar tanto el nombre del archivo como el contenido del archivo, permitiendo la creación de un archivo PHP malicioso en un directorio actual. Aunque el archivo se elimina después del procesamiento, existe una condición de carrera: si la transmisión de la respuesta se retrasa (por ejemplo, a través de un archivo grande o una conexión de cliente lenta), el archivo permanece accesible. Durante esta ventana, el atacante puede emitir una segunda solicitud para ejecutar el archivo PHP malicioso, lo que resulta en ejecución remota de código.\n\nEl proveedor fue notificado con antelación sobre esta vulnerabilidad, pero no respondió con los detalles de la vulnerabilidad o el rango de versiones vulnerables. Solo la versión 6.1 (build 167) y anteriores fueron probadas y confirmadas como vulnerables; otras versiones no fueron probadas y también podrían ser vulnerables."
