The vulnerability arises because the application passes an unsanitized image argument to the RocketTheme\\Toolbox\\ResourceLocator\\UniformResourceLocator::findResource() method. The implementation of the file:// scheme branch fails to perform a proper realpath or containment check, relying only on lexical collapse of '..' path segments.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn attacker can exploit this by crafting malicious Markdown image syntax that includes path traversal sequences. This allows the application to resolve and process files located outside of the designated media directory. The system subsequently composites the unauthorized file into a carrier image, caches the resulting file, and serves it through a public-facing, unauthenticated URL. This leads to the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive image data residing on the web server to remote anonymous visitors.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker identifies a Grav CMS instance running version 2.0.10.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker authors a malicious Markdown document containing a crafted image tag.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe image tag includes directory traversal sequences (e.g., ../../) in the watermark parameter.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe ImageMedium::watermark() method receives the malicious payload.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe input is passed to UniformResourceLocator::findResource(), which fails to validate the traversal path.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe application resolves the path to an image file outside the intended web root or media sandbox.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe server processes and composites the unauthorized image into a new file.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe final file is cached and exposed via a public URL, allowing the attacker to download the sensitive content.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation allows for the unauthenticated disclosure of any image file accessible to the web server process.

Monitor web server access logs for anomalous requests containing path traversal sequences (e.g., ../) targeting image processing parameters or Markdown-related endpoints.
