| Title | Gerapy 0.9.13 / master branch at commit 7c4eda875563f5d0342a3650959e0502bc279d77 CWE-862 Missing Authorization / CWE-434 Unrestricted Upload of F |
|---|
| Description | Gerapy 0.9.13 exposes the project upload endpoint `POST /api/project/upload` without authentication. The route is mapped in `gerapy/server/core/urls.py` and the corresponding `project_upload` view in `gerapy/server/core/views.py` has `@permission_classes([IsAuthenticated])` commented out, while the surrounding project and client management APIs explicitly require authentication. The same view accepts `request.FILES['file']`, saves it to `PROJECTS_FOLDER`, opens it as a ZIP archive, and extracts all entries into `PROJECTS_FOLDER`. An unauthenticated remote attacker can therefore upload a crafted ZIP archive to place a new Scrapy project or overwrite files in an existing project directory. This can result in persistent project tampering and a practical path to code execution when an administrator later builds, deploys, parses, schedules, or runs the attacker-controlled project through Gerapy/Scrapyd workflows. Remediation should restore authentication on the upload endpoint, validate the uploaded archive type and entry names, extract only into a newly created validated project directory, and prevent unintended overwrites. |
