CVE-2024-3584

CVE-2024-3584 is a critical-severity improper input validation vulnerability in qdrant (rust), affecting versions = 1.9.0-dev. It is fixed in 1.9.0.

Summary

qdrant/qdrant version 1.9.0-dev is vulnerable to path traversal due to improper input validation in the /collections/{name}/snapshots/upload endpoint. By manipulating the name parameter through URL encoding, an attacker can upload a file to an arbitrary location on the system, such as /root/poc.txt. This vulnerability allows for the writing and overwriting of arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to a full takeover of the system. The issue is fixed in version 1.9.0.

Impact

The application does not adequately validate input before processing it, allowing unexpected values to reach sensitive code paths. Typical impact: varies by context: data corruption, logic bypass, or denial of service.

CVE-2024-3584 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). The vector is network-reachable, no privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (1.9.0); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is CVE-2024-3584? CVE-2024-3584 is a critical-severity improper input validation vulnerability in qdrant (rust), affecting versions = 1.9.0-dev. It is fixed in 1.9.0. The application does not adequately validate input before processing it, allowing unexpected values to reach sensitive code paths.
  2. How severe is CVE-2024-3584? CVE-2024-3584 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
  3. Which versions of qdrant are affected by CVE-2024-3584? qdrant (rust) versions = 1.9.0-dev is affected.
  4. Is there a fix for CVE-2024-3584? Yes. CVE-2024-3584 is fixed in 1.9.0. Upgrade to this version or later.
  5. Is CVE-2024-3584 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2024-3584 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

  6. What actually determines whether CVE-2024-3584 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
  7. How do I fix CVE-2024-3584? Upgrade qdrant to 1.9.0 or later.
