Title

jupyter-server path traversal allows access to sibling directories sharing root_dir name prefix

Summary

Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In versions 2.17.0 and earlier, a path traversal vulnerability in the REST API allows an authenticated user to escape the configured root_dir and access sibling directories whose names begin with the same prefix as the root_dir. For example, with a root_dir named "test", the API permits access to a sibling directory named "testtest" through a crafted request to the /api/contents endpoint using encoded path components. An attacker can read, write, and delete files in affected sibling directories. Multi-tenant deployments using predictable naming schemes are particularly at risk, as a user with a directory named "user1" could access directories for user10 through user19 and beyond. A user who can choose a single-character folder name could gain access to a significant number of sibling directories. Version 2.18.0 contains a fix. As a workaround, ensure folder names do not share a common prefix with any sibling directory.

Severity ?

7.6 (High)

Summary

Jupyter Server: Path Traversal via incorrect startswith() root directory check allows access to sibling directories

Details

Summary

Jupyter Server <=2.17.0 can access directories sibling to the root directory, if it starts with the root dir's name.

PoC

Minimal:

.
├── test/              <- root directory.
│   └── test.txt
└── testtest/
    └── secret.txt     <- file to exfiltrate that we should not be able to access via API

HOST="http://localhost:8888"
TOKEN=""
SIBLING="testtest"
TARGET="secret.txt"

curl -s -X POST \
  "$HOST/api/contents/%2e%2e/$SIBLING/$TARGET/checkpoints" \
  -H "Authorization: token $TOKEN"

Full PoC by @stef41: https://gist.github.com/Yann-P/66d4982a965dee8fcb8dd89db29e7006

Impact

It is possible for an authenticated user to access content outside the server's root_dir in siblings directories sharing the same prefix as the root_dir. The attacker can escalate access, reading, writing, and deleting from sibling directories.

This can have a tangible impact for deployments using predictable naming scheme with multi-tenant server, for example user1, user2, user3, ..., user10 etc, as user1 could access and modify files of all user10 - user19 and higher.

In a hypothetical system where users can choose a name of their folder, an attacker could choose a single-letter username to gain access to a significant number of sibling directories.

Workarounds

Use folder names that do not overlap.

Acknowledgments

Thank you to @stef41 for providing a useful PoC.

In versions 2.17.0 and earlier, a path traversal vulnerability in the REST API allows an authenticated user to escape the configured root_dir and access sibling directories whose names begin with the same prefix as the root_dir. For example, with a root_dir named \"test\", the API permits access to a sibling directory named \"testtest\" through a crafted request to the /api/contents endpoint using encoded path components. An attacker can read, write, and delete files in affected sibling directories. Multi-tenant deployments using predictable naming schemes are particularly at risk, as a user with a directory named \"user1\" could access directories for user10 through user19 and beyond. A user who can choose a single-character folder name could gain access to a significant number of sibling directories. \n\nVersion 2.18.0 contains a fix.

  "details": "Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In versions 2.17.0 and earlier, a path traversal vulnerability in the REST API allows an authenticated user to escape the configured root_dir and access sibling directories whose names begin with the same prefix as the root_dir. For example, with a root_dir named \"test\", the API permits access to a sibling directory named \"testtest\" through a crafted request to the /api/contents endpoint using encoded path components. An attacker can read, write, and delete files in affected sibling directories. Multi-tenant deployments using predictable naming schemes are particularly at risk, as a user with a directory named \"user1\" could access directories for user10 through user19 and beyond. A user who can choose a single-character folder name could gain access to a significant number of sibling directories. \n\nVersion 2.18.0 contains a fix. As a workaround, ensure folder names do not share a common prefix with any sibling directory.",
