How the Exploit Works

The CVE-2025-10468 vulnerability allows a malicious actor to traverse the file directory stored within CityPlus software due to insufficient security restrictions. This vulnerability can be exploited when the software fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input before using it in file system operations. An attacker could manipulate file and directory paths to navigate out of the intended directory structure to access files or directories that are outside of the restricted directory.

Conceptual Example Code

Here is a conceptual example demonstrating how an HTTP request might be crafted to exploit this vulnerability:

GET /file?filename=../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1
Host: vulnerable.cityplus.com
Content-Type: application/json

In this example, the attacker is attempting to traverse the directory to access a sensitive file (`/etc/passwd`) that resides outside of the intended directory structure.

Mitigation

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is advised to apply the vendor’s patch for CityPlus versions before 24.29375. In situations where applying the patch is not immediately possible, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as a temporary mitigation measure, providing some level of protection by detecting and blocking path traversal attempts.
