What is CVE-2024-8769?

A vulnerability in the LockManager.release_locks function within Aimhubio's Aim product permits unauthorized file deletion via relative path traversal. By manipulating the user-controllable run_hash parameter, which is concatenated into a file path without proper normalization, an attacker can exploit this flaw through the Repo._close_run() method accessible via the tracking server instruction API. This enables the potential deletion of arbitrary files on the server machine, posing serious security risks.
