2 techniques across 2 tactics: Discovery, Collection The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Impact | Sensitive files such as configuration files, credentials, or system files can be read, potentially leading to further compromise. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (HIGH), this represents a significant risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker modifies a file parameter to include directory traversal sequences (../../etc/passwd) to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 16, 2026
A vulnerability in the ObsidianReader class of the run-llama/llama_index repository, versions 0.12.23 to 0.12.28, allows for arbitrary file read through symbolic links. The ObsidianReader fails to resolve symlinks to their real paths and does not validate whether the resolved paths lie within the intended directory. This flaw enables attackers to place symlinks pointing to files outside the vault directory, which are then processed as valid Markdown files, potentially exposing sensitive information.

RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Validate and sanitize file path inputs. Use a whitelist of allowed files or directories. Implement chroot jails or containerization.

CVE-2025-3046 presents notable security risk, a path traversal vulnerability rated CVSS 7.5. This could allow attackers to access or modify files outside intended directories, potentially exposing sensitive configuration or credentials. Proof-of-concept code is publicly available, increasing the risk of exploitation. A patch is available and should be applied as part of regular vulnerability management.
Apply vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible: (1) Restrict file upload functionality via WAF; (2) Implement allowlist-based file type validation; (3) Use chroot/containerization to limit filesystem access.
