CVE-2025-67506
📋 TL;DR
CVE-2025-67506 is a path traversal vulnerability in PipesHub that allows unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary files anywhere the service account has permission. By uploading files with crafted filenames containing '../' sequences to the vulnerable endpoint, attackers can overwrite system files or plant malicious code. This affects all PipesHub installations running versions prior to 0.1.0-beta.

- 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 through remote code execution, data destruction, or service account takeover by overwriting critical system files or planting backdoors.
Likely Case
Remote file overwrite leading to service disruption, data corruption, or planting of malicious scripts for persistence.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if service account has minimal permissions and file system access is properly restricted.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires only HTTP POST requests with crafted filenames, making it trivial for attackers with network access.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: 0.1.0-beta
Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/pipeshub-ai/pipeshub-ai/security/advisories/GHSA-w398-9m55-2357
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Upgrade PipesHub to version 0.1.0-beta or later. 2. Restart the PipesHub service. 3. Verify the patch is applied by checking the version.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Block vulnerable endpoint
allUse web application firewall or reverse proxy to block access to /api/v1/record/buffer/convert endpoint
# Example nginx config: location /api/v1/record/buffer/convert { deny all; }
# Example Apache config: <Location /api/v1/record/buffer/convert> Require all denied </Location>
Implement authentication middleware
allAdd authentication requirement to all API endpoints before the vulnerable code path
# Implementation depends on your authentication system
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Restrict network access to PipesHub to trusted IPs only
- Run PipesHub with a service account having minimal file system permissions
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if PipesHub version is below 0.1.0-beta and test if POST requests to /api/v1/record/buffer/convert with '../' in filename are accepted without authentication.Check Version:
Check PipesHub configuration files or run: pip show pipeshub-ai | grep VersionVerify Fix Applied:
After upgrading to 0.1.0-beta, verify that path traversal attempts are rejected and endpoint requires proper authentication.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to /api/v1/record/buffer/convert with filenames containing '../' sequences
- File write operations outside expected temporary directories
- Unauthenticated access attempts to API endpoints
Network Indicators:
- Unusual file upload patterns to the vulnerable endpoint
- Multiple failed authentication attempts followed by successful file uploads
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND (uri_path="/api/v1/record/buffer/convert" AND (filename="*../*" OR user_agent="*curl*" OR user_agent="*wget*"))
