CWE-22Published: July 25, 2023· Updated: Jun 17, 2026

9.8

CVSS v3.1

Official Description

An issue was discovered in Vocera Report Server and Voice Server 5.x through 5.8. There is Path Traversal via the "restore SQL data" filename. The Vocera Report Console contains a websocket function that allows for the restoration of the database from a ZIP archive that expects a SQL import file. The filename provided is not properly sanitized and allows for the inclusion of a path-traversal payload that can be used to escape the intended Vocera restoration directory. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to point to a crafted ZIP archive that contains SQL commands that could be executed against the database.
