IWX-CVE-2022-8470 (2022-04-09)¶
At approximately 00:41 Eastern, April 9, 2022, security researchers disclosed a new vulnerability in the InterWorx SiteWorx Interactive Command Line tool. By modifying a temp file while a multi-line text editor is open, InterWorx could be fooled into reading a different file. Depending on the file in question, disclosure of sensitive information could enable followup attacks beyond the initial data leak.
At approximately 19:30 Eastern, April 9, 2022, InterWorx released hotfixes to correct this vulnerability.
