| Title | KodExplorer 4.52 Authorization Bypass |
|---|
| Description | KodExplorer v4.52 contains a post-authentication logic flaw that allows any logged-in low-privilege user to invoke the high-risk systemMember/initInstall action. Because the endpoint is not properly protected and the authorization mechanism fails open for unregistered actions, an attacker can trigger a global reinitialization process intended only for installation or administrative maintenance. In environments where an administrator has renamed a user without synchronizing the storage path, this action silently resets the victim’s directory mapping to a new empty location, causing previously existing files to disappear from the application view and resulting in cross-user data unavailability.
