{"schema_version":"1.9.0","id":"GHSA-364q-w7vh-vhpc","published":"2026-03-11T00:09:41Z","modified":"2026-03-23T04:56:10.740060407Z","aliases":["CVE-2026-31817","GO-2026-4670"],"summary":"OliveTin's unsafe parsing of UniqueTrackingId can be used to write files","details":"When the `saveLogs` feature is enabled, OliveTin persists execution log entries to disk. The filename used for these log files is constructed in part from the user-supplied `UniqueTrackingId` field in the `StartAction` API request. This value is not validated or sanitized before being used in a file path, allowing an attacker to use directory traversal sequences (e.g., `../../../`) to write files to arbitrary locations on the filesystem.\n### Affected Code\n\n**Entry point — `service/internal/api/api.go` (line 130):**\n\nThe `UniqueTrackingId` from the API request is passed directly to the executor without validation:\n\n```go\nexecReq := executor.ExecutionRequest{\n Binding: pair,\n TrackingID: req.Msg.UniqueTrackingId, // user-controlled, no validation\n // ...\n}\n```\n\n**Tracking ID accepted as-is — `service/internal/executor/executor.go` (lines 508–512):**\n\nThe tracking ID is only replaced with a UUID if it is empty or a duplicate. Any other string, including one containing path separators, is accepted:\n\n```go\n_, isDuplicate := e.GetLog(req.TrackingID)\n\nif isDuplicate || req.TrackingID == \"\" {\n req.TrackingID = uuid.NewString()\n}\n```\n\n**Filename construction — `service/internal/executor/executor.go` (line 1042):**\n\nThe tracking ID is interpolated directly into the log filename:\n\n```go\nfilename := fmt.Sprintf(\"%v.%v.%v\",\n req.logEntry.ActionTitle,\n req.logEntry.DatetimeStarted.Unix(),\n req.logEntry.ExecutionTrackingID,\n)\n```\n\n**File write — `service/internal/executor/executor.go` (lines 1068–1069 and 1082–1083):**\n\nThe filename is joined to the configured log directory using `path.Join`, which calls `path.Clean` internally. `path.Clean` resolves `..` path segments, causing the final file path to escape the intended directory:\n\n```go\n// Results file (.yaml)\nfilepath := path.Join(dir, filename+\".yaml\")\nerr = os.WriteFile(filepath, data, 0600)\n\n// Output file (.log)\nfilepath := path.Join(dir, filename+\".log\")\nerr := os.WriteFile(filepath, []byte(data), 0600)\n```\n\n### Proof of Concept\n\nAn attacker sends the following `StartAction` request (Connect RPC or REST):\n\n```json\n{\n \"bindingId\": \"<any-executable-action-id>\",\n \"uniqueTrackingId\": \"../../../tmp/pwned\"\n}\n```\n\nAssuming the action title is `Ping the Internet` and the timestamp is `1741320000`, the constructed filename becomes:\n\n```\nPing the Internet.1741320000.../../../tmp/pwned\n```\n\nWhen `path.Join` processes this with a configured results directory like `/var/olivetin/logs`:\n\n```\npath.Join(\"/var/olivetin/logs\", \"Ping the Internet.1741320000.../../../tmp/pwned.yaml\")\n```\n\n`path.Clean` resolves the traversal:\n\n1. Path segments: `[\"var\", \"olivetin\", \"logs\", \"Ping the Internet.1741320000...\", \"..\", \"..\", \"..\", \"tmp\", \"pwned.yaml\"]`\n2. The `..` segments traverse upward past the log directory.\n3. Final resolved path: `/tmp/pwned.yaml`\n\nTwo files are written:\n\n- **`.yaml` file** — contains YAML-serialized `InternalLogEntry` (action title, icon, timestamps, exit code, output, tags, username, tracking ID)\n- **`.log` file** — contains the raw command output (potentially attacker-influenced if the action echoes its arguments)\n\n### Impact\n\n- **Arbitrary file write** to any path writable by the OliveTin process.\n- OliveTin frequently runs as root inside Docker containers, so the writable scope is often the entire filesystem.\n- An attacker could:\n - Overwrite OliveTin's own `sessions.yaml` to inject authenticated sessions.\n - Write to entity file directories to inject malicious entity data.\n - Write to system cron directories or other locations to achieve remote code execution.\n - Cause denial of service by overwriting critical system files.\n\n### Suggested Fix\n\nValidate the `UniqueTrackingId` to ensure it only contains safe characters before use. A strict UUID format check is the simplest approach:\n\n```go\nimport \"regexp\"\n\nvar validTrackingID = regexp.MustCompile(`^[a-fA-F0-9\\-]+$`)\n\n// In ExecRequest, before accepting the user-supplied ID:\nif req.TrackingID == \"\" || !validTrackingID.MatchString(req.TrackingID) {\n req.TrackingID = uuid.NewString()\n}\n```\n\nAlternatively, sanitize the filename in `stepSaveLog` by stripping or rejecting path separators and `..` sequences.","affected":[{"package":{"name":"github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin","ecosystem":"Go","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.0.0-20260309102040-b03af0e2eca3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/03/GHSA-364q-w7vh-vhpc/GHSA-364q-w7vh-vhpc.json"}}],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin/security/advisories/GHSA-364q-w7vh-vhpc"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-31817"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin/commit/2f77000de44f65690f257e3cf8e2c8462b0e74c7"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin/releases/tag/3000.11.2"}],"database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-22"],"github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-03-11T00:09:41Z","nvd_published_at":"2026-03-10T22:16:19Z","severity":"HIGH"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:L"}]}
