MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Discovery, Collection The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an authenticated session on Ivanti Xtraction with at least low-privilege access (CVSS PR:L) and reachability of the web-based template export functionality, which is the specific feature abused. Exploitation is limited by the need for valid credentials - this is not an unauthenticated flaw - but is otherwise unconstrained: no user interaction is required (UI:N), complexity is low (AC:L), and it is reachable over the network. Impact is confined to reading arbitrary files accessible to the Xtraction service account (confidentiality only); it does not by itself modify data or disrupt availability. Affected versions are those prior to 2026.4 per the vendor. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but second-tier priority rather than an emergency. The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 7.7 High) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack that requires low-level authentication (PR:L) and no user interaction, with a confidentiality-only impact amplified by a changed scope. There is no corroborating exploitation-probability signal: no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC were supplied, so the real-world exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified from the input - treat the absence of these as missing data, not as evidence of low risk. The signals are internally consistent (a path-traversal file read naturally maps to C:H/I:N/A:N and to AC:L), and the PR:L requirement meaningfully limits the attacker population to those who already hold valid, if low-privileged, Xtraction credentials. The single vendor-only reference (Ivanti advisory hub) is the sole source; affected-version data ('before 2026.4') is vendor-stated but not independently corroborated by NVD CPE version ranges in the input (the CPE is a wildcard). Net: a credible authenticated information-disclosure flaw worth patching on a normal-to-expedited cycle, but not showing the active-exploitation or wormable characteristics that would justify emergency out-of-band action. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who holds or phishes a low-privileged Xtraction account logs in and abuses the template export feature, supplying a crafted path (e.g. directory-traversal sequences) where a template filename is expected. The server resolves the path outside the intended template directory and returns arbitrary files - such as configuration files, credentials, or connection strings - enabling further compromise. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and no user interaction is required beyond the attacker's own authenticated session. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 13, 2026
Ivanti Xtraction versions prior to 2026.4 are vulnerable to a path traversal flaw in the template export feature, allowing an authenticated attacker with low privileges to read arbitrary files accessible to the service account. Exploitation requires a valid session but no user interaction, and while confidentiality is compromised, no public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified; this is a genuine but second-tier priority rather than an emergency.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to Ivanti Xtraction version 2026.4 or later to resolve CVE-2026-106047. The vendor advisory is available at https://hub.ivanti.com/s/article/Security-Advisory-Ivanti-Xtraction-Multiple-CVEs. As a temporary compensating control, restrict access to the template export functionality to only trusted authenticated users and ensure the Xtraction service account operates with least privilege to limit the scope of files readable. However, these measures do not eliminate the vulnerability and should not replace patching.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a classic path traversal (CWE-22) in the template export functionality of Ivanti Xtraction. An authenticated user with low privileges can manipulate file paths to escape the intended export directory and read files outside the application's designated scope. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N indicates network reachability, low attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, and a scope change (S:C) because the vulnerable component can impact resources beyond its security scope. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:ivanti:xtraction:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all versions before 2026.4 are affected. The flaw specifically affects the template export feature, which likely accepts user-supplied path parameters without proper sanitization.

Network-reachable export feature (AV:N, AC:L) needs a valid low-privilege login (PR:L); reading OS files beyond the app's authority gives S:C with C:H and no integrity or availability impact.

DescriptionCVE.org
A Path Traversal vulnerability in the template export functionality of Ivanti Xtraction before version 2026.4 allows a remote authenticated attacker to read arbitrary files.
Articles & Coverage 1
Executive ViewAI
Ivanti Xtraction users could access files beyond their intended permissions through the template export feature, creating a confidentiality risk for data reachable by the service account. Because no vendor patch is currently available and exploitation requires an existing low-privilege session, this is a manageable but real exposure that warrants tightening access and monitoring rather than emergency escalation.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include restricting template export to trusted users or networks, enforcing least privilege for the Xtraction service account and users, monitoring logs for path traversal patterns and anomalous file reads, applying WAF or virtual patching rules where feasible, and reviewing files accessible to the service account.
