DescriptionCVE.org

XAgent contains a path traversal vulnerability in the workspace file endpoint that allows self-registered or default-credential users to read arbitrary files on the host by supplying parent-directory segments in the file_name form field with no path containment check. Attackers can register an account without email verification, then submit crafted file_name values such as parent-directory traversal sequences to the /workspace/file handler to read host files including application secrets, database credentials, and system files outside the Docker sandbox.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in XAgent's ToolServerNode workspace file endpoint allows any network-accessible user to read arbitrary files on the host by exploiting missing path containment validation in the /workspace/file handler. Because XAgent permits self-registration without email verification, an attacker requires no prior credentials - trivial account creation is sufficient to reach the vulnerable endpoint. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Access open self-registration endpoint
Delivery
Create account without email verification
Exploit
POST crafted file_path with traversal sequences to /workspace/file
Execution
Server resolves path without containment check
Impact
Read arbitrary host-mounted files including secrets and credentials

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the XAgent ToolServerNode service is network-accessible and that open self-registration is enabled (the default configuration, which does not require email verification). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N accurately reflects the threat: network-reachable, low complexity, no authentication barrier, and high confidentiality impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated external attacker registers a new XAgent account via the open self-registration endpoint (no email verification required), then issues a POST request to `/workspace/file` with a `file_path` value such as `../../../../etc/passwd` or a path targeting XAgent's own `config.yml` containing database credentials. The server resolves the traversal sequence relative to the workspace directory without containment checks and returns the file contents. …
Remediation Update the XAgent installation to include commit 26f2b6e or any subsequent commit that incorporates the `ToolServer/ToolServerNode/utils/path_security.py` module, available at https://github.com/OpenBMB/XAgent/commit/26f2b6edc75127af524f027c022b382967178e3a. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
