A SQL Injection vulnerability in Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow allows an attacker to modify application data.  Likely impacts include creation of administrative users and deletion or modification of data in the application database. Data exfiltration via SQL injection is not possible using this vulnerability. Successful unauthenticated exploitation requires a Workflow system with anonymous access enabled, otherwise an authenticated user is required. This issue affects all versions of FileCatalyst Workflow from 5.1.6 Build 135 and earlier.

In FileCatalyst Direct 3.8.8 and earlier through 3.8.6, the web server does not properly sanitize illegal characters in a URL which is then displayed on a subsequent error page. A malicious actor could craft a URL which would then execute arbitrary code within an HTML script tag.

Improper URL validation leads to path traversal in FileCatalyst Direct 3.8.8 and earlier allowing an encoded payload to cause the web server to return files located outside of the web root which may lead to data leakage.

A directory traversal within the ‘ftpservlet’ of the FileCatalyst Workflow Web Portal allows files to be uploaded outside of the intended ‘uploadtemp’ directory with a specially crafted POST request. In situations where a file is successfully uploaded to web portal’s DocumentRoot, specially crafted JSP files could be used to execute code, including web shells.
