Put simply

Think of it like a restaurant where anyone can peek into the kitchen through an unlocked door โ€” they could see all the secret recipes without breaking a sweat! In this case, the attacker can list files without needing any special access. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to list the contents of directories by making direct requests to specific URIs within Eloan V3.0, exposing files that should remain private.

What to do

It's like handing out blueprints to your security system โ€” not a good look! To secure your application, implement access controls for those URIs to ensure that only authorized requests can list files. Review your server configurations to restrict access and consider updating to a newer version if available. ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ You've got this!
