Exploitation Conditions

The deprecated endpoint GET /api/v1/typebots/{typebotId}/blocks/{blockId}/storage/upload-url must be present and reachable - it was removed in 3.17.0, so only pre-3.17.0 deployments are vulnerable. S3 storage must be configured (S3_ENDPOINT, S3_ACCESS_KEY, and S3_SECRET_KEY must all be set); the handler explicitly returns an INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR if any are missing, making the endpoint non-exploitable without S3. The attacker must supply a valid typebotId for any public typebot and a valid blockId corresponding to a file input block within that typebot - these are typically visible in embed HTML, share URLs, or can be enumerated from public chatbot API responses. No authentication is required (CVSS PR:N confirmed). Exploitation is limited to deployments with S3 storage active and running a version prior to 3.17.0; the filePath parameter is passed entirely unvalidated to the presigned URL generator, imposing no restriction on target key path.

Impact

The CVSS 8.2 score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L) accurately reflects the attack profile: network-accessible, low complexity, requiring no authentication or user interaction. The I:H rating corresponds to unrestricted write access to arbitrary S3 object paths including private/ namespaces and cross-tenant public/ paths. A:L reflects partial availability impact from potential file overwriting. C:N is consistent with the endpoint issuing only presigned PUT URLs, not GET - preventing direct data exfiltration via this vector alone. Real-world risk is highest for multi-tenant or SaaS Typebot deployments where tenant isolation in S3 is a security boundary. Self-hosted single-tenant deployments face a lower blast radius but are still vulnerable to arbitrary bucket writes. No EPSS data was provided in the input and the CVE is not in CISA KEV, so widespread in-the-wild exploitation is not confirmed. However, the low attack complexity and zero authentication requirement mean the theoretical exploitation bar is extremely low for any attacker who can identify a public Typebot instance.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker visits any publicly shared Typebot chatbot and extracts the typebotId and blockId values from the embed code or network traffic - both are exposed in standard chatbot share links. The attacker then sends a GET request to /api/v1/typebots/{typebotId}/blocks/{blockId}/storage/upload-url?filePath=private/other-tenant/sensitive-config.json, receives a valid presigned S3 PUT URL scoped to that exact key, and issues a PUT request with arbitrary content, overwriting a private object in the shared S3 bucket. No public exploit code has been confirmed at time of analysis, but the attack requires only curl or any HTTP client.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 11, 2026

Unauthenticated S3 path traversal in Typebot versions prior to 3.17.0 allows any attacker to obtain presigned S3 PUT URLs for arbitrary object keys - including other tenants' private paths - by supplying an attacker-controlled filePath parameter to a deprecated public upload endpoint. Exploitation requires only knowledge of a valid public typebotId and blockId, both of which are typically visible in chatbot embed codes or share links. No public exploit has been confirmed at time of analysis, and this CVE does not appear in CISA KEV, but the CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N vector indicates trivial remote unauthenticated exploitation against any Typebot deployment with S3 storage configured.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to Typebot version 3.17.0 or later, available at https://github.com/baptisteArno/typebot.io/releases/tag/v3.17.0. The fix (PR #2459, commit 7ae4c007) removes the vulnerable handleGetUploadUrl.ts handler entirely, eliminating the deprecated endpoint. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, operators should block HTTP requests matching the pattern GET /api/v1/typebots/*/blocks/*/storage/upload-url at a WAF or reverse proxy layer - note this will break file upload functionality for any chatbot flows that still depend on this deprecated endpoint, so usage should be audited before blocking. Additionally, restricting the S3 bucket policy to enforce path-based conditions (e.g., requiring the presigned URL key to start with a per-tenant prefix) would serve as a defense-in-depth control independent of the application fix, limiting cross-tenant write impact even if other path traversal issues exist.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Typebot.io is a Node.js open-source chatbot builder that uses Amazon S3 (or S3-compatible storage) for user file uploads. The vulnerable endpoint GET /api/v1/typebots/{typebotId}/blocks/{blockId}/storage/upload-url was a deprecated handler implemented in packages/blocks/fileInput/src/api/deprecated/handleGetUploadUrl.ts. It called generatePresignedUrl() by passing the user-supplied filePath parameter directly, without any sanitization, prefix enforcement, or path scoping. Authorization only verified that the referenced typebot existed as a public entity and that the referenced block was a file input block - it never validated that the requested filePath was within the expected upload namespace for that typebot or session. This constitutes CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): the code authenticated the typebot context but failed to authorize the specific resource (the S3 key) being requested. CPE cpe:2.3:a:baptistearno:typebot.io:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all versions prior to 3.17.0. The endpoint was deleted entirely in the fix rather than patched, confirming the design was fundamentally insecure.

DescriptionCVE.org

TypeBot is a chatbot builder tool. Versions prior to 3.17.0 expose a deprecated public upload endpoint at GET /api/v1/typebots/{typebotId}/blocks/{blockId}/storage/upload-url that accepts an attacker-controlled filePath and returns a presigned S3 PUT URL for that exact key. Because the endpoint only checks that the referenced typebot is public and that the referenced block is a file input block, an unauthenticated attacker who knows a valid public typebotId and blockId can request presigned upload URLs for arbitrary objects in the shared bucket, including private/... and other tenants' public/... paths. Version 3.17.0 fixes this issue.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Typebot chatbot deployments using Amazon S3 storage contain an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability (CVE-2026-48763) enabling attackers to generate presigned URLs for arbitrary file uploads, including cross-tenant data access in shared environments. No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, creating immediate exposure for data confidentiality and regulatory compliance for all affected organizations.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Disable or restrict network access to the deprecated upload endpoint through WAF or firewall rules; (2) Enable S3 object versioning and Object Lock where feasible for rapid rollback of unauthorized uploads; (3) Enforce strict IAM bucket policies with explicit allow-lists for Typebot service principals; (4) Enable CloudTrail logging with real-time alerts for presigned URL generation and cross-tenant or cross-organization PutObject operations.
