Arbitrary File Write via Archive Extraction (Zip Slip) Affecting org.apache.linkis:linkis-common package, versions [,1.3.2)

org.apache.linkis:linkis-common is a module that builds a computation middleware layer to facilitate connection, governance and orchestration between the upper applications and the underlying data engines.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary File Write via Archive Extraction (Zip Slip) due to the Manager module engineConn not checking the zip path of an uploaded file, which allows remote code execution.

It is exploited using a specially crafted zip archive, that holds path traversal filenames. When exploited, a filename in a malicious archive is concatenated to the target extraction directory, which results in the final path ending up outside of the target folder. For instance, a zip may hold a file with a "../../file.exe" location and thus break out of the target folder. If an executable or a configuration file is overwritten with a file containing malicious code, the problem can turn into an arbitrary code execution issue quite easily.

The following is an example of a zip archive with one benign file and one malicious file. Extracting the malicous file will result in traversing out of the target folder, ending up in /root/.ssh/ overwriting the authorized_keys file:

+2018-04-15 22:04:42 ..... 20 20 ../../../../../../root/.ssh/authorized_keys
