CVE-2024-41695
📋 TL;DR
This CVE describes a path traversal vulnerability in Cybonet software that allows attackers to access files outside the intended directory. Attackers can potentially read sensitive system files or upload malicious files to restricted locations. Organizations using affected Cybonet products are vulnerable.
💻 Affected Systems
- Cybonet software products
⚠️ Manual Verification Required
This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.
Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

- Review the CVE details at NVD
- Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
- Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
- Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete system compromise via arbitrary file read/write leading to data exfiltration, privilege escalation, or remote code execution.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to sensitive configuration files, credentials, or application data stored on the server.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper file permission restrictions and input validation in place.
🎯 Exploit Status
Path traversal vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity once the vulnerable endpoint is identified.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Check vendor advisory for specific fixed versions
Vendor Advisory: https://www.gov.il/en/Departments/faq/cve_advisories
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Review vendor advisory for affected products. 2. Download and apply the latest security patches. 3. Restart affected services. 4. Verify the fix is applied.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filtering
allImplement strict input validation to reject path traversal sequences like ../, ..\, and absolute paths
Web Application Firewall Rules
allConfigure WAF to block requests containing path traversal patterns
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict file system permissions to limit accessible directories
- Deploy network segmentation to isolate vulnerable systems from critical assets
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test file access endpoints with path traversal payloads like ../../etc/passwd or similarCheck Version:
Check Cybonet product documentation for version checking commandVerify Fix Applied:
Retest with same payloads after patching to confirm they are rejected📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Multiple failed attempts accessing files with ../ patterns
- Unusual file access patterns from single IP
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests containing path traversal sequences in parameters
