Q: Who is affected? (Versions/Components)

📦 **Affected**: MeterSphere versions **< 1.20.20 LTS** AND **< 2.7.1**. 👥 **Vendor**: MeterSphere (Open Source Continuous Testing Platform). ⚠️

Q: What can hackers do? (Privileges/Data)

💻 **Privileges**: No authentication required! 📂 **Data**: Access to **all files** available to the running process. Secrets, configs, source code—all exposed! 😱

Q: Is exploitation threshold high? (Auth/Config)

📉 **Threshold**: LOW. 🔓 **Auth**: None needed. ⚙️ **Config**: Just send a request to the specific API path. Easy to exploit! 🎯

Q: Is there a public Exp? (PoC/Wild Exploitation)

🔥 **Public Exp?**: YES. 📜 **PoC**: Available via Nuclei templates & Awesome-POC repo. 🌍 **Wild Exploitation**: High risk due to simplicity! 🚀

Q: How to self-check? (Features/Scanning)

🔍 **Self-Check**: Scan for `/api/jmeter/download/files`. 🛠️ **Tooling**: Use Nuclei or manual HTTP requests. 👀 **Feature**: Check if file download works without login. 🧐

Q: Is it fixed officially? (Patch/Mitigation)

✅ **Fixed?**: YES. 🔧 **Patch**: Upgrade to **v1.20.20 LTS** or **v2.7.1+**. 📢 **Source**: GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-mcwr-j9vm-5g8h). 📝

Q: What if no patch? (Workaround)

🚧 **No Patch?**: Block external access to `/api/jmeter/download/files`. 🛑 **WAF**: Add rules to deny requests to this path. 🔒 **Network**: Restrict API endpoints via firewall. 🧱

Q: Is it urgent? (Priority Suggestion)

🔴 **Urgency**: HIGH. 🚨 **Priority**: Patch immediately! ⏳ **Reason**: No auth needed + Public PoC = Easy compromise. Don't wait! ⏰
