CVE-2026-66324 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Spoofing via external file path control in Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) enables a network-based, unauthenticated attacker to deceive users about the origin or content of resources rendered by the browser. The CVSS score of 6.5 (Medium) reflects a network-reachable attack requiring user interaction but no attacker privileges, with high confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a vendor patch is available through Microsoft MSRC.

CVE-2026-19084 HIGH POC PATCH This Week

Unauthenticated arbitrary file read in the Shared Files Pro WordPress plugin (all versions before 1.7.70) allows remote attackers to supply an unvalidated path parameter during featured image creation, causing the plugin to read and republish any file accessible to the web server process at a public URL. This compound impact - read plus republication - means sensitive data such as wp-config.php database credentials or secret keys can be exfiltrated and exposed to any internet user, not just the attacker. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists, and the CVSS vector confirms no authentication or user interaction is required against any default installation of the affected plugin.

CVE-2026-12513 MEDIUM POC PATCH This Month

Arbitrary file deletion via path traversal in the Shared Files and Shared Files Pro WordPress plugins (versions before 1.7.67 and 1.7.68 respectively) enables unauthenticated attackers to trigger deletion of critical server files such as wp-config.php, causing denial of service and potential site takeover. The plugin's single-pass traversal filter is bypassable during frontend file submission, allowing a crafted path pointing outside the uploads directory to be stored; when an administrator later permanently deletes the corresponding file entry, the resolved arbitrary file is removed. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists, though SSVC assessment rates exploitation as none at time of analysis, likely reflecting the two-stage attack dependency on administrator action.

CVE-2026-53580 HIGH PATCH This Week

Arbitrary local file disclosure and denial-of-service exist in Trilium's automatic image-download feature, affecting all versions prior to 0.104.0. Any authenticated user or valid ETAPI token holder can embed file:// scheme URLs in note img tags to cause the server to read and store arbitrary local files - including sensitive system files accessible to the Trilium process - as retrievable note attachments. The same code path, when directed at an unbounded source such as /dev/zero, triggers uncontrolled memory allocation that crashes the server entirely. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-81726 HIGH This Week

Path traversal in NLTK through version 3.10.3 allows attackers who control caller-supplied file paths to read or write files outside the boundaries enforced by the pathsec sandbox module. The affected APIs - TransitionParser, AveragedPerceptron, PerceptronTagger, and maxent parameter loading - perform raw file I/O directly on caller-provided paths without routing through pathsec enforcement, undermining the intended access control boundary. The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 reflects high confidentiality impact; no public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

CVE-2026-77016 CRITICAL PATCH Act Now

Arbitrary file deletion in the Workeera WordPress plugin before 1.0.6 lets any authenticated user with a role as low as subscriber remove files anywhere the web server can reach, because the plugin neither restricts which values a user may write to their own candidate profile nor validates/contains the stored file path before deletion. On a typical WordPress host this enables denial of service and, by deleting wp-config.php to force the installer into a fresh setup, potential full site takeover. No active exploitation is recorded (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit has been identified; EPSS is low at 0.14%.

Path traversal in TeamViewer Desktop Clients prior to version 15.81.5 allows an authenticated remote session participant to write files to arbitrary locations on the victim's local filesystem via the file transfer and virtual file clipboard features. The affected product family spans Full Client, Host, QuickSupport, and Portable editions across Windows, Linux, and macOS, covering the v13, v14, and current v15 release lines. Arbitrary file write can be chained to code execution at the privilege level of the user running TeamViewer; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

CVE-2026-77693 HIGH POC PATCH This Week

Arbitrary file deletion in the Order Tip for WooCommerce WordPress plugin (versions before 1.6.0) allows authenticated Shop Managers to delete any file on the web server by exploiting missing capability checks and absent path restrictions on the deletion endpoint. The plugin fails to validate both the requesting user's permissions and the target file path, meaning a malicious or compromised Shop Manager account could remove critical WordPress files such as wp-config.php, leading to full site compromise. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists per WPScan; however, EPSS sits at only 0.17% (6th percentile) and CISA has not added this to KEV, consistent with the SSVC assessment of no observed exploitation.

CVE-2026-62865 HIGH PATCH This Week

Arbitrary local file read in self-hosted Typebot prior to 3.18.0 allows any registered user to exfiltrate files readable by the server process - including environment variable secrets, credential encryption keys, and database connection strings - by publishing a chatbot whose Send Email block specifies an absolute filesystem path such as /etc/passwd or /proc/self/environ as an attachment. The root cause is a missing URL-scheme validation in the parseAttachments helper: any value not prefixed with the application's own base URL is passed directly to Nodemailer as a filesystem path, and the Nodemailer transport is instantiated without disableFileAccess, so it reads and emails the file to an attacker-controlled recipient. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the attack requires no special server configuration because open signup and system SMTP are both enabled by default.

Arbitrary file write in sublinear-time-solver's MCP export_state and import_state tools allows any caller able to invoke the MCP interface to overwrite files accessible to the server process - including sensitive targets such as ~/.ssh/authorized_keys or application binaries - by supplying a path-traversal filepath argument. Affected packages are consciousness-explorer (npm) < 1.1.2, sublinear-time-solver (npm) < 1.6.0, and the Rust crate sublinear < 0.2.0. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the write-anywhere primitive carries inherent high-impact potential against deployments that expose the MCP server to untrusted callers.
