  • Implement strict input validation and sanitization for all file-related parameters in the application.

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check e-Belediye version in application settings or about dialog. If version is below 2.0.642, system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Check application interface or configuration files for version information.

Verify Fix Applied:

Confirm version is 2.0.642 or higher and test file upload/download functionality with malicious inputs.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual file access patterns
  • Failed file system operations with suspicious paths
  • Multiple ../ sequences in request logs

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing path traversal sequences (../, ..\)
  • Unusual file download/upload patterns

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (uri="*../*" OR params="*../*") AND dest_ip="e-belediye_server"
