CVE-2023-51926

7.5 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

YonBIP v3_23.05 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the nc.bs.framework.comn.serv.CommonServletDispatcher component. This allows attackers to read sensitive files from the server filesystem without authentication. Organizations using YonBIP v3_23.05 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • YonBIP
Versions: v3_23.05
Operating Systems: All platforms running YonBIP
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Vulnerability exists in the CommonServletDispatcher component which appears to be a core framework component.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Attackers could read sensitive configuration files, credentials, database connections, or other critical system files, potentially leading to full system compromise.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthenticated attackers reading application configuration files, source code, or other sensitive data stored on the server.

🟢

If Mitigated

If proper network segmentation and access controls are in place, impact is limited to reading files within the application's accessible directories.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

GitHub references suggest exploit details are publicly available. Arbitrary file read vulnerabilities typically have simple exploitation paths.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://www.yonyou.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Check vendor advisory at yonyou.com for patches
2. Apply any available security updates
3. Monitor vendor communications for specific fix

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Restrict Servlet Access

all

Configure web server or application firewall to block access to the vulnerable CommonServletDispatcher endpoint

# Example for Apache: RewriteRule ^/path/to/CommonServletDispatcher - [F]
# Example for Nginx: location ~ /CommonServletDispatcher { deny all; }

Network Segmentation

linux

Restrict network access to YonBIP instances to only trusted sources

# Firewall rule example: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -s trusted_network -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network access controls to limit exposure
  • Deploy web application firewall with rules to detect and block file read attempts

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test if the CommonServletDispatcher endpoint allows reading arbitrary files by attempting to access known system files through the vulnerable component

Check Version:

Check YonBIP version in application interface or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify the patch prevents arbitrary file reads by testing the same exploitation attempts

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual file path patterns in servlet requests
  • Multiple failed file access attempts
  • Requests to CommonServletDispatcher with file path parameters

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing file path traversal patterns
  • Requests to CommonServletDispatcher endpoint

SIEM Query:

web.url:*CommonServletDispatcher* AND (web.uri:*../* OR web.uri:*..\*)
