- Possible disruption of SparkyFitness services
- Need for verification of exposure and upgrade to patched version
- Potential impact on data integrity and confidentiality
Technical summary
The SparkyFitness application has a vulnerability in the api/admin/backup/restore endpoint, allowing an authenticated global administrator to execute arbitrary operating-system commands with server process privileges by uploading a restore archive with a crafted filename. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.0. Successful exploitation can execute arbitrary operating-system commands with the server process privileges. The administrator can supply a restore archive with a filename containing shell metacharacters. Defenders should prioritize verifying exposure of SparkyFitness instances, especially those with global administrator access, and upgrade to version 1.6.0 or later.
Defensive priority
