DescriptionCVE.org

A path traversal vulnerability was discovered in the Offline archives functionality of the local web interface due to insufficient validation of an input parameter. A local user with administrative credentials for the web interface could submit an archive name containing traversal sequences and delete arbitrary files reachable by the Arc process, which runs with administrative privileges on the host.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in Nozomi Networks Arc's local web interface allows a local administrator to delete arbitrary files on the host system by submitting a crafted archive name containing directory traversal sequences to the Offline archives functionality. The Arc process executes with administrative privileges on the host, meaning the deletable file scope extends well beyond the web interface's normal reach. …

Exploit
Submit archive name with path traversal sequences
Execution
Arc process resolves traversed path with host admin privileges
Impact
Arbitrary files deleted on host system

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two concurrent conditions: (1) local access to the host running Nozomi Networks Arc's web interface, and (2) valid administrative credentials for that web interface. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N) accurately characterizes this as a local, low-complexity attack requiring high administrative privileges - the score of 6.8 is a reasonable reflection of the constrained attack surface. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An insider or attacker who has obtained administrative credentials for the Arc local web interface submits an archive name containing traversal sequences (e.g., '../../../../var/log/arc/') to the Offline archives function. The Arc process, running with host administrative privileges, interprets the traversal and deletes the targeted path, potentially removing configuration files, log archives, or critical OS files, causing service disruption or covering attacker tracks. …
Remediation Consult the Nozomi Networks advisory NN-2026:15-01 at https://security.nozominetworks.com/NN-2026:15-01 for the patched release version - the provided data does not specify an exact fix version, so a specific upgrade target cannot be independently confirmed here. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
