CVE-2025-34173
Last modified
CVE-2025-34173 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/snort/snort_ip_reputation.php, the value of the iplist parameter is not sanitized of directory traversal-related characters/strings before being used to check if a file exists. While the contents of the file cannot be read, the server reveals whether a file exists, which allows an attacker to enumerate files on the target. EPSS estimates a 0.84% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/snort/snort_ip_reputation.php, the value of the iplist parameter is not sanitized of directory traversal-related characters/strings before being used to check if a file exists. While the contents of the file cannot be read, the server reveals whether a file exists, which allows an attacker to enumerate files on the target. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Services: Snort package" permissions.
