AI-Generated

The Docker API server in Crawl4AI versions prior to 0.8.7 is susceptible to an arbitrary file write vulnerability via the /screenshot and /pdf endpoints, allowing attackers to manipulate the output_path parameter without proper validation. This can lead to unauthorized file overwrites, potentially resulting in denial of service and compromising server integrity. Organizations utilizing affected versions of Crawl4AI should prioritize patching to mitigate this critical risk.

Original NVD Description

Crawl4AI before 0.8.7 contains an arbitrary file write vulnerability in the Docker API server's /screenshot and /pdf endpoints. The output_path parameter accepts arbitrary filesystem paths without validation, allowing an attacker to supply absolute or path-traversal values to write to any location writable by the application's user, overwriting server files and causing denial of service.
