GoFound through 1.4.1 Path Traversal via database parameter in /api/db/drop

Summary

GoFound through 1.4.1 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary directories by supplying ../ sequences in the database parameter. Attackers can send GET requests to /api/db/create and /api/db/drop, directly or via a victim's browser, triggering os.RemoveAll on directories outside the data directory.

Remediation

1. Inventory every sea-team GoFound deployment, including staging.
2. No fixed version appears in the public sources yet. Check the references below and the vendor directly.
