A path traversal vulnerability in the static router for Drogon from 1.0.0-beta14 to 1.6.0 could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to arbitrarily read files. The vulnerability is due to lack of proper input validation for requested path. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP request with specific path to read. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to read files that should be restricted.

This affects the package drogonframework/drogon before 1.7.5. The unsafe handling of file names during upload using HttpFile::save() method may enable attackers to write files to arbitrary locations outside the designated target folder.

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in drogon up to 1.8.1. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component Session Hash Handler. The manipulation leads to small space of random values. The attack may be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 1.8.2 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is c0d48da99f66aaada17bcd28b07741cac8697647. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-213464.

All versions of the package drogonframework/drogon are vulnerable to HTTP Response Splitting when untrusted user input is used to build header values in the addHeader and addCookie functions. An attacker can add the \r\n (carriage return line feeds) characters to end the HTTP response headers and inject malicious content.

All versions of the package drogonframework/drogon are vulnerable to CRLF Injection when untrusted user input is used to set request headers in the addHeader function. An attacker can add the \r\n (carriage return line feeds) characters and inject additional headers in the request sent.
