How CVE-2025-2651 Works
This vulnerability exposes sensitive directory listings in `/oews/admin/` due to misconfigured web server permissions. Attackers can remotely access directory contents without authentication, revealing files, scripts, or backup data. The issue stems from missing `IndexIgnore` or `Options -Indexes` directives in Apache/Nginx configurations. Directory traversal is possible via crafted HTTP requests (e.g., GET /oews/admin/../), enabling unauthorized access to adjacent directories. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N) confirms network-based exploitation with low attack complexity.
