Official Description
An issue in the component /Controllers/RestController.php of DreamFactory Core v1.0.3 allows attackers to execute a directory traversal via an unsanitized URI path.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-55988 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires high privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.2.
