7.7 HIGH

Network-reachable via cluster protocol requiring low-privilege peer access; scope change applies because writes escape the storage backend boundary into external filesystem or cloud storage space; no confidentiality or availability impact observed.

DescriptionCVE.org

Arc is an open, SQL-native time-series database for telemetry. Prior to version 26.06.1, Arc Enterprise's Raft FSM (internal/cluster/raft/fsm.go:applyRegisterFile) accepts attacker-chosen file paths in manifest-registration proposals without validating them against the configured storage backend. The only check is that the path is non-empty. There is no parent-traversal (..) rejection, no allowlist of legitimate prefixes, no scheme restriction (s3:// vs local), and no length bound. This is fixed in 2026.06.1. Some workarounds are available. Restrict cluster network access to known-trusted peers via strict firewall rules, audit the cluster manifest for unexpected paths (any path not matching the configured storage backend root is suspect), and/or disable cluster mode until the fix is available.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in Arc Enterprise's Raft finite state machine allows low-privileged cluster peers to register arbitrary file paths via manifest-registration proposals, bypassing all path validation in the applyRegisterFile handler (internal/cluster/raft/fsm.go). All Arc Enterprise deployments running in cluster mode prior to version 2026.06.1 are affected. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires Arc Enterprise to be deployed and actively running in cluster mode - the vulnerability exists solely in the Raft consensus subsystem and standalone Arc deployments are not affected. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:H/SA:N) reflects a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring low privileges with no user interaction. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to Arc version 2026.06.1 or later, which introduces proper path validation in the Raft FSM manifest-registration handler; this is the primary fix confirmed by the vendor advisory at https://github.com/Basekick-Labs/arc/security/advisories/GHSA-f85q-mvg8-qf37. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all Arc Enterprise deployments operating in cluster mode and identify systems running versions prior to 2026.06.1, prioritizing production environments. …
