CWE-48: Path Equivalence: 'file name' (Internal Whitespace)

Variant Incomplete Simple

CWE版本: 4.18

更新日期: 2025-09-09

弱点描述

The product accepts path input in the form of internal space ('file(SPACE)name') without appropriate validation, which can lead to ambiguous path resolution and allow an attacker to traverse the file system to unintended locations or access arbitrary files.

常见后果

影响范围: Confidentiality Integrity

技术影响: Read Files or Directories Modify Files or Directories

观察示例

参考: CVE-2000-0293

Filenames with spaces allow arbitrary file deletion when the product does not properly quote them; some overlap with path traversal.

参考: CVE-2001-1567

"+" characters in query string converted to spaces before sensitive file/extension (internal space), leading to bypass of access restrictions to the file.
