Path Traversal
Monthly
Path traversal in AnythingLLM's document folder listing endpoint on Windows allows authenticated low-privilege users to enumerate directories outside the intended documents directory. The root cause is a platform-specific gap in the shared path containment helper: it correctly rejects POSIX-style '../' sequences but fails to reject Windows-style parent path segments produced by Node.js path.relative(), such as bare '..'. No active exploitation has been confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified, consistent with the Medium CVSS score of 4.3 and the authentication requirement.
Path traversal in the mise HTTP backend allows a repository-controlled `.tool-versions` file to direct `mise install` to create symlinks at arbitrary filesystem locations outside the designated mise installs root on Unix-like systems. Affecting mise up to version 2026.5.16, a developer or CI system that runs `mise install` against a malicious project can have executable symlinks silently placed under attacker-chosen `PATH` directories, enabling replacement of trusted commands with attacker-controlled HTTP content. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the detailed proof-of-concept published in GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-f94h-j2qg-fxw3, and no CISA KEV listing confirms active in-the-wild exploitation.
Open redirect in Gogs versions up to and including 0.14.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to craft login URLs that redirect authenticated users to arbitrary external sites after successful login. The root cause is a two-character-only URL validation in the `IsSameSite()` function: the path `/a/../\example.com` passes server-side inspection but resolves to `//example.com` after browsers normalize backslashes to forward slashes. A publicly available proof-of-concept with screenshots exists; this vulnerability is not in CISA KEV and active exploitation has not been confirmed at time of analysis.
Out-of-bounds read and denial-of-service in Zephyr RTOS's ext2 filesystem parser expose embedded devices to filesystem-level attacks via maliciously crafted disk images. The flaw resides in ext2_fetch_direntry() (subsys/fs/ext2/ext2_diskops.c), where insufficient validation of on-disk directory entry fields - specifically de_rec_len and de_name_len against block boundaries - allows a crafted ext2 image to trigger an oversized memcpy (out-of-bounds read) or a zero-progress infinite loop when de_rec_len equals zero. All Zephyr versions are indicated as affected per the wildcard CPE, no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Path traversal and sandbox escape in LangChain prior to 1.3.9 allow untrusted inputs - including LLM-generated content steered by adversarial prompts - to escape a configured filesystem root boundary. Three components are affected: a file-search agent middleware that validates a starting directory but not glob patterns or symlink targets; prompt and chain/agent configuration loaders that resolve path fields without root confinement; and path-prefix authorization logic that performs string-prefix comparison without segment boundaries, allowing sibling paths to bypass access controls. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE does not appear in CISA KEV, but the risk is meaningful for any deployment that exposes LangChain filesystem agents to untrusted user input or LLM prompt injection.
Path traversal in motionEye v0.43.1 allows any authenticated user - including those with normal (non-admin) privileges - to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem via the picture and movie preview API endpoints. The root cause is inconsistent input validation: `get_media_preview()` and `del_media_content()` in `mediafiles.py` omit the `..` sequence check that `get_media_content()` correctly implements, and the Tornado web framework passes percent-encoded slashes (`%2F`) through unmodified to `os.path.join()`. A fully functional public proof-of-concept demonstrating retrieval of `/etc/passwd` is published in the GitHub security advisory; no public exploit identified at time of analysis for CISA KEV, but the low exploitation complexity and pre-computable default-credential signature make exposed instances an immediate practical target.
Path traversal in Keras 3.14.0 exposes local file systems to arbitrary file and directory creation when processing maliciously crafted model files. The DiskIOStore.make method constructs directory paths from user-supplied layer names without sanitizing directory traversal sequences (..); since only forward slashes are blocked, embedding .. components in a layer name allows escape from the intended temporary working directory during model save or load operations. No active exploitation (CISA KEV) and no public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis; however, EPSS data was not provided, leaving probabilistic exploitation likelihood unquantified.
Sensitive file exfiltration in GitHub Copilot 1.372.0 (VS Code Copilot Chat extension) arises because the fetch_webpage tool accepts file-handler URIs, letting the agent read files outside the trusted workspace folder without user approval; when combined with indirect prompt injection, an attacker who plants malicious instructions in content the agent processes can coerce Copilot into reading arbitrary local files and sending their contents to an attacker endpoint. CVSS 7.5 reflects confidentiality-only impact (C:H/I:N/A:N). No public exploit is confirmed at time of analysis, though a third-party research write-up (blindcyber.com) describes the technique; the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV and EPSS is low at 0.36%.
Path traversal in FlowiseAI Flowise's S3 Document Loader component (packages/components/nodes/documentloaders/S3/S3.ts) enables authenticated remote attackers to manipulate S3 object key inputs to access files outside the intended storage scope. Versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.2 are confirmed affected. Publicly available exploit code exists (E:P in the CVSS 4.0 vector), and the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure, leaving no vendor-confirmed patch at time of analysis.
Path traversal in Allure Report's built-in HTTP server (allure-commandline <= 2.38.1) allows any client that can reach the server port to read arbitrary files accessible to the Allure process. The vulnerability exists in Commands.setUpServer() where request URI paths are resolved against the report directory without normalization or containment checks, and Java's URI.getPath() additionally percent-decodes sequences like %2e%2e to .., bypassing client-side normalization. A proof-of-concept is publicly available via the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-82cg-3hv7-74gc; no CISA KEV listing has been confirmed at time of analysis, though real-world risk is materially elevated in CI/CD environments where --host 0.0.0.0 is commonly used.
Symlink-chain path traversal in the go.qbee.io/transport library's extractTar routine allows a crafted tar archive to write or overwrite files one directory level above the intended extraction path. Applications using this library with elevated privileges - specifically qbee-agent, which runs as root - face the most severe impact, as exploitation enables root-privileged arbitrary file writes outside the extraction sandbox. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis; vendor-released patch v1.26.25 resolves the issue.
Path traversal in Kestra's `inputFiles` task mechanism allows remote attackers to write arbitrary files to the worker filesystem when flows forward untrusted webhook or execution data as file names. Affected across four release branches (prior to 1.3.19, 1.2.19, 1.1.19, and 1.0.43), exploitation depends on a specific flow design pattern but requires no authentication if the target webhook is publicly accessible. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS integrity impact is rated High due to the ability to create or overwrite files outside the task working directory.
Path traversal in the YARD Ruby documentation server (prior to 0.9.44) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary `.html` files from directories outside the configured document root by supplying crafted `../`-containing request paths such as `/../yard-cache-secret.html`. The flaw exists because the static cache lookup in `StaticCaching#check_static_cache` constructs a filesystem path from the raw `request.path` before the router's own path-sanitization logic runs, enabling traversal to sibling directories. No active exploitation has been identified (not in CISA KEV) and no public POC exists at time of analysis; the vendor-released fix is version 0.9.44.
Arbitrary local file disclosure in the Rust crate tract-onnx (by Sonos) allows an attacker who supplies a malicious ONNX model file to read arbitrary files from the victim's filesystem at model-load time, with file contents surfaced directly in inference tensor output. The root cause is that `get_external_resources()` in `onnx/src/tensor.rs` passes the attacker-controlled `location` field of ONNX external-data tensors directly to `PathBuf::join()` without sanitization, enabling both absolute-path overrides and relative `../` traversal. A secondary denial-of-service (panic) is possible via out-of-bounds `offset`/`length` values. Publicly available exploit code exists (full PoC confirmed on tract-onnx 0.21.16); no active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Path traversal in AIL Framework's `/objects/item/diff` endpoint exposes gzip-compressed server-side files to authenticated users. The Flask blueprint route in `var/www/blueprints/objects_item.py` accepted arbitrary item identifiers via `s1` and `s2` query parameters and attempted to read and compare their contents without first verifying they resolved to legitimate AIL objects, enabling directory traversal sequences to escape the items directory. No active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; CIRCL reported the issue and an upstream fix is available via a GitHub commit.
Path traversal in MicroCeph's remote-import API allows enrolled cluster members or join token holders to manipulate files within the `/var/snap/microceph` snap confinement boundary, enabling daemon disruption and cluster state pollution across the squid and tentacle release tracks. The root cause is missing input validation on `name` and `LocalName` parameters in `cmdRemotePut`, permitting `..` sequences to reach unintended directories. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; an upstream fix exists as GitHub PR #758 with no confirmed tagged snap release.
Arbitrary file read via path traversal in the Woosa - Marktplaats for WooCommerce WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 2.0.4) permits authenticated WordPress administrators to escape the plugin's log directory and access any file readable by the web server process, including the sensitive wp-config.php file. The flaw exists in the render_logs_ui() function within class-module-logger-hook-settings.php, which decodes a base64-supplied filename from the log_file GET parameter and concatenates it with the log directory path without any boundary enforcement. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; the attack surface is meaningfully constrained by the Administrator-level privilege requirement (PR:H), though successful exploitation could cascade into full site compromise via exposed database credentials.
Unauthenticated SSRF in signalk-server ≤2.27.0 allows remote attackers to force the server to make arbitrary HTTP/HTTPS requests to any destination, including RFC 1918 private ranges, loopback, and cloud metadata services at 169.254.169.254. On default installations where no admin user has been created, the security middleware is a no-op, meaning all three vulnerable endpoints are completely unauthenticated over the network. A detailed public PoC is included in the GitHub advisory demonstrating internal network scanning, AWS IAM credential theft via IMDSv1, and path-traversal-assisted targeted data exfiltration; no CISA KEV listing is present at time of analysis.
Path traversal and query-string injection in the OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib Sentry exporter allows any OTLP span sender to redirect the collector's operator bearer token to arbitrary Sentry API endpoints - including privileged admin, organization, and member management endpoints. The vulnerability stems from the `service.name` span attribute being interpolated directly into Sentry API URLs via `fmt.Sprintf` without validation, while the existing `projectSlugRegexp` safeguard is only applied to operator-configured mappings and never to runtime-derived slugs. No CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the GHSA advisory provides detailed exploitation steps demonstrating both a universally reliable query-string injection vector and a nginx-dependent path traversal vector, with a fixed version available at 0.154.0.
Grav CMS (getgrav/grav < 1.7.53) exposes admin bcrypt password hashes, SMTP credentials, and full site configuration to any actor who can obtain a session-static admin-nonce value - via XSS, Referrer header leakage, browser history, or proxy logs - because the backup download endpoint enforces only a single URL-embedded nonce with no form-level CSRF token and no session binding. The default backup profile archives the entire GRAV_ROOT directory including user/accounts/ and user/config/ without exclusions, and the download handler Base64-encodes the absolute filesystem path in the response URL, leaking server internals. A fully functional public PoC is available; no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but downstream risk includes offline hashcat cracking followed by unauthenticated admin login with no server-side rate limiting.
Path traversal in libzypp's .repo file processing enables low-privileged network-accessible attackers to write content into arbitrary directories on the host filesystem beyond the intended zypp cache boundary. Affected versions span the 17.x series before 17.38.13 and the 16.x series before 16.22.19, covering systems running SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE derivatives that use zypper as their package manager. The primary real-world impact is disk exhaustion across unexpected filesystem paths, causing a denial of service; no confidentiality impact is attributed in the CVSS assessment. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file write in BBOT's postman_download module enables a remote attacker to write files outside the intended output directory on a victim's system by controlling a Postman workspace name containing path traversal sequences. When a user runs the postman_download module, BBOT fetches workspace names from the Postman API and constructs local filesystem paths without sanitization, allowing pathlib to resolve paths into arbitrary locations on the victim's host. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though the attack primitive is straightforward given the publicly committed fix details and low attack complexity.
Path traversal in BBOT's unarchive internal module enables a malicious archive hosted by attacker-controlled infrastructure to write files outside the intended extraction directory when BBOT runs on systems with GNU tar < 1.34. This vulnerability is a residual gap from CVE-2025-10284, which resolved git-specific RCE vectors but left the underlying archive extraction path validation entirely unimplemented, relying instead on inconsistent external tool behavior across platforms. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; the CVSS vector (AC:H/UI:R) constrains real-world risk to BBOT operators actively scanning attacker-controlled targets on affected OS distributions, but the high integrity impact (I:H) and zero privilege requirement (PR:N) are significant for red-team and CI/CD BBOT deployments running on legacy base images.
Open redirect in Gitea's login flow allows external domain hijacking by bypassing the `urlIsRelative` validation in `modules/httplib/url.go` through a combination of directory traversal sequences and a backslash in the `redirect_to` parameter. All Gitea instances running version 1.25.4 and below are affected; a working proof-of-concept is publicly available in the GitHub Security Advisory. Exploitation enables phishing via trusted Gitea domains, OAuth/SSO authorization code theft, Referer-header leakage of sensitive parameters, and potential cache poisoning — no public exploit identified as confirmed actively exploited (CISA KEV absent).
Sibling-prefix path traversal in open-webui 0.9.5 and earlier allows any authenticated user to read arbitrary files from directories adjacent to the configured cache directory, provided those directories share the string prefix 'cache' (e.g., cache_backup, cached_models). The flaw exists in serve_cache_file() at main.py:2914, where a missing trailing path separator in the startswith boundary check causes os.path.abspath() to validate resolved sibling paths as if they were within the cache root. Publicly available exploit code exists in the GHSA advisory (PoC confirmed against open-webui 0.9.5 via raw ASGI delivery); no confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) at time of analysis.
Path traversal in EMV JobCareer WordPress theme versions up to and including 7.3 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files outside the intended directory, leading to high availability impact with scope change. Reported by Patchstack and tracked under CWE-22, this flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.6, though no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The Patchstack advisory characterizes this as an arbitrary file deletion vulnerability rather than a read primitive.
Unauthenticated arbitrary file deletion in the WorkScout-Core WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.7.11) allows any remote attacker to delete files on the underlying server without credentials. The flaw stems from a path traversal weakness (CWE-22) in a file-handling endpoint that fails to sanitize user-supplied input before constructing filesystem paths. Exploitation requires no authentication, no user interaction, and no special configuration, meaning every publicly reachable WordPress installation running this plugin version is exposed; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in QuantumCloud Conversational Forms for ChatBot allows Path Traversal.1.8. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
Arbitrary file download via path traversal in the Client Portal (Pro) WordPress plugin versions 5.6.2 and earlier exposes sensitive server-side files to authenticated low-privilege users. The CWE-22 flaw allows any registered portal user to craft a file request that escapes the intended directory boundary and retrieve arbitrary files accessible to the web server process - including wp-config.php containing database credentials. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the high confidentiality impact combined with low attack complexity makes this a meaningful data exposure risk on affected WordPress installations.
Arbitrary file deletion in QuantumCloud WPBot Pro WordPress Chatbot plugin versions 13.6.5 and earlier allows authenticated subscriber-level users to delete arbitrary files on the WordPress host via a path traversal flaw. With no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the issue still carries elevated risk because exploitation requires only the lowest-privilege WordPress role, which is auto-grantable on sites that allow open registration. Deleting files such as wp-config.php can trigger the WordPress install routine and lead to full site takeover.
Arbitrary file read in Runtipi 4.9.1-4.9.3 exposes sensitive container secrets via symlink following in an unauthenticated app-store logo endpoint. An attacker who controls a Git-based app-store repository can embed a symbolic link as a marketplace logo file; because the path guard performs only lexical validation before Node.js reads the file, Runtipi resolves and returns the symlink target, potentially leaking /data/.env, JWT secrets, service credentials, and seed values to any unauthenticated requester. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor-confirmed fix is available in v4.10.0.
Arbitrary file deletion in evolution-data-server's addressbook file backend exposes host filesystem to manipulation by a Flatpak application with D-Bus access. The vulnerability exploits split validation logic: a crafted URI embedding directory traversal sequences (e.g., '../') is accepted without sufficient sanitization during contact creation or modification, but when the same URI is later processed at deletion time, a second, less restrictive check fails to catch the traversal - allowing files outside the intended addressbook directory to be removed. Critically, deletion of Flatpak override files could be leveraged to silently weaken sandbox restrictions for subsequent application runs. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file deletion in the Car Zone WordPress theme (versions through 3.7) by Aivah Themes lets remote, unauthenticated attackers remove files on the underlying server through a path-traversal flaw. The CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/A:H) reflects that file deletion crosses scope into the broader WordPress installation, enabling denial-of-service or forced reinstall scenarios. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not in CISA KEV.
Unauthenticated arbitrary file download affects the 'WordPress & WooCommerce Scraper Plugin, Import Data from Any Site' plugin by Extendons in versions up to and including 1.0.7. Remote attackers can exploit a path traversal weakness (CWE-22) to retrieve arbitrary files from the underlying web server without any authentication, exposing sensitive data such as wp-config.php credentials. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-privilege CVSS profile (7.5) makes opportunistic mass-scanning by WordPress vulnerability scanners likely once disclosed.
BYONM module resolution in Deno (≤ 2.7.11) allows path traversal via crafted `package.json` `main` fields, bypassing the `--allow-read` permission sandbox that is central to Deno's security model. A malicious npm package installed under a BYONM `node_modules` tree can cause `require()` to read and return the parsed contents of arbitrary JSON files outside the directory scope granted by `--allow-read`, while a direct `Deno.readTextFileSync()` call to the same path would be correctly blocked. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but a self-contained proof-of-concept was supplied by the reporter and is documented in the GitHub Security Advisory; real-world risk is meaningful in supply-chain scenarios where Deno's permission model is the primary isolation boundary.
The Git node in n8n's workflow automation platform allows authenticated workflow editors to exfiltrate arbitrary host filesystem contents by supplying local paths as git repository sources in Clone or Push operations, bypassing the N8N_RESTRICT_FILE_ACCESS_TO sandbox entirely. Any git repository readable by the n8n process - including directories containing SSH keys, environment files, or database credentials - can be cloned into an allowed output path and read back through normal workflow outputs. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the attack complexity is genuinely low for any user holding workflow editing permissions, and vendor-confirmed patches are available in versions 1.123.48, 2.21.8, and 2.22.4.
Path traversal in Langflow's Knowledge Bases API (POST /api/v1/knowledge_bases) allows authenticated users to create directories and write controlled JSON files outside their designated storage boundary anywhere on the server filesystem. Versions up to and including langflow 1.8.4 (pip) are confirmed affected; the root cause is the unsanitized use of a user-supplied `name` field in path construction within `create_knowledge_base`. A public proof-of-concept is included in the GHSA advisory, lowering the exploitation bar considerably, though no CISA KEV listing confirms active widespread exploitation at time of analysis.
Static file disclosure in Hono's serve-static middleware on Windows allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read files protected behind prefix-mounted middleware by submitting a URL-encoded backslash (%5C) in the request path. Hono versions prior to 4.12.25 are affected when deployed on Windows using the Node, Bun, or Deno adapters with an auth or access-control middleware guarding a static subtree. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the attack primitive is trivially constructable from the public advisory.
Parameter smuggling in python-multipart below 0.0.30 allows unauthenticated network attackers to present a different field name or filename to an upstream WAF, proxy, or gateway than the value actually delivered to the backend application. The root cause is that parse_options_header delegates to Python's email.message.Message, which silently applies RFC 2231/5987 extended parameter decoding - a behavior explicitly forbidden for multipart/form-data by RFC 7578 §4.2 - causing the extended value to override the plain parameter and bypass inspection logic. Concrete downstream consequences include circumventing filename-based upload controls and, where applications construct filesystem paths from the parsed filename without sanitization, achieving path traversal via decoded percent sequences such as ..%2F or injecting null bytes (%00) to confuse validators. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not in CISA KEV; CVSS 3.7 with AC:H reflects that exploitation requires a specific upstream inspector in the deployment topology.
Path traversal in the WordPress Download Monitor plugin (versions <= 5.1.9, by WP Chill) allows a network-accessible attacker with Author-level WordPress credentials to download arbitrary files from the server, achieving high confidentiality impact. The vulnerability (CWE-22) stems from improper sanitization of file paths within the plugin's download functionality, enabling directory traversal outside the intended file scope. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS data was provided to quantify exploitation probability.
Arbitrary file deletion in Meta Box - WordPress Custom Fields Framework versions 5.11.1 and earlier exposes servers to filesystem damage through a path traversal flaw (CWE-22) accessible to WordPress Contributor-level users. By embedding traversal sequences in a crafted file deletion request, an authenticated Contributor can delete files outside the intended plugin directory, potentially reaching critical server or WordPress installation files. No active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; however, the scope-changed CVSS metric indicates that impact can extend beyond the WordPress application boundary to the underlying server filesystem.
Arbitrary source map file read in @babel/core allows an attacker who controls Babel's input source code to exfiltrate any source map file (.map) accessible to the process running Babel, provided the attacker can also read the compilation output and knows the target file path. This affects all @babel/core versions up to and including 7.29.0 and the 8.0.0 alpha/rc series prior to 8.0.0-rc.6. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, and exploitation is constrained by three simultaneous conditions, but the vulnerability is significant in environments that compile untrusted or externally submitted code - such as online transpilers, CI/CD pipelines accepting external PRs, or multi-tenant build services.
WordPress Plugin HB Audio Gallery Lite 1.0.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the file_path parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress Brandfolder plugin version 3.0 and earlier contains a local file inclusion vulnerability in callback.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to include arbitrary files by manipulating the. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress Dharma Booking 2.28.3 and earlier contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to include arbitrary files by manipulating the gateway parameter. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress IMDb Profile Widget 1.0.8 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by manipulating the url parameter. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress Simple-Backup 2.7.11 contains multiple vulnerabilities that allow unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files and download sensitive files by manipulating the delete_backup_file and. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in Wertheim SafeController Software (AssemblyVersion 6.15.8328.28014) enables an authenticated user holding the settings_branches_manage privilege to embed directory traversal sequences in a newly created branch code, redirecting downstream file-write operations — covering uploaded files, profile pictures, and settings data — to attacker-chosen filesystem locations. The root cause is insufficient server-side validation of the branch code field at branch creation time; that tainted value later propagates into multiple file-path-generation routines across the application. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified; real-world impact is bounded by both the service account's write permissions and length restrictions on the branch code value.
Path traversal in the Intelbras iNVU 7016 FT NVR web interface allows authenticated high-privilege remote users to read arbitrary files outside the intended syslog directory via the /RPC2_Loadfile/syslog/ endpoint. Affected firmware is version 3.004.00IB000.0.T Build 2025-09-26; the vendor has since released a patched firmware build (2026-05-29). No public exploit identified at time of analysis as KEV-confirmed active exploitation, but a public proof-of-concept writeup exists, elevating practical risk above baseline.
Path traversal in Microweber CMS up to version 2.0.20 exposes the unauthenticated `/api_nosession/thumbnail_img` endpoint to file system manipulation via the `cache_path_relative` parameter of the `userfiles_path` function. Remote, unauthenticated attackers can traverse outside the intended directory to read - and potentially write - files accessible to the web server process. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available and the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure, meaning no patch exists at time of analysis.
Path traversal in the Store Locator WordPress plugin before version 1.6.9 enables authenticated administrators to read arbitrary PHP files from the server filesystem, including wp-config.php, which contains database credentials and WordPress secret keys. The vulnerability stems from an unvalidated parameter passed directly into a file path, allowing traversal sequences to escape the intended directory. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists per WPScan reporting, though EPSS sits at 0.04% (12th percentile) and no KEV listing exists, indicating low observed exploitation activity despite the public PoC.
Privilege escalation in Grafana Operator (all versions ≤ 5.23) allows any user with Kubernetes RBAC permissions to create GrafanaDashboard or GrafanaLibraryPanel resources to steal the Kubernetes service account token of the operator manager pod. The jsonnet templating language, supported via spec.jsonnetLib, is evaluated unsandboxed inside the operator manager pod, enabling a path traversal payload to read sensitive files - including the mounted service account token - and exfiltrate it through the resulting dashboard output. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but successful exploitation yields cluster-level privilege escalation, reflected in the vendor-assigned CVSS 4.0 subsequent-system impact of SC:H/SI:H.
Arbitrary file read in the LWS Optimize WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 3.3.19) permits authenticated users with Editor-level access or above to retrieve any file readable by the web-server process, including sensitive files such as wp-config.php. The vulnerable `combine_current_css()` function blindly trusts stylesheet href values harvested from page HTML, resolves them to absolute filesystem paths, and passes them to `file_get_contents()` without enforcing a safe-directory boundary or a `.css` extension check - a classic CWE-22 path traversal pattern. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but the attack path is straightforward given the source code is publicly accessible in the WordPress plugin repository.
Directory traversal in Allegra's exportReport method exposes arbitrary server-side files to authenticated remote attackers, operating in the context of the underlying service account. The flaw affects all tracked versions per the CPE wildcard (cpe:2.3:a:allegra:allegra:*), with Alltena's 9.0.0 release notes referencing the fix. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS data was provided, but the CVSS 6.5 rating reflects a meaningful confidentiality risk for any internet-facing Allegra deployment where user accounts may be broadly provisioned.
Zip-slip path traversal in filebrowser v2.63.5 and earlier (Linux-hosted) allows any authenticated user with Create permission to plant a file whose name contains URL-encoded Windows-style backslash traversal sequences (`%5C`). The Linux server stores the file with a literal backslash in its name, which `filepath.ToSlash()` silently ignores, and the archive download handler emits that name verbatim into zip/tar central directories. When a Windows victim downloads and extracts the archive using Explorer, 7-Zip, WinRAR, or .NET `ZipFile.ExtractToDirectory`, the extractor interprets `\` as a path separator and writes files to arbitrary locations outside the extraction directory - enabling arbitrary file write on the victim's Windows machine. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the full PoC published in the GHSA advisory; EPSS is 0.03% (8th percentile), consistent with the two-party, victim-interaction requirement.
Path traversal in MISP's OrganisationsController::getOrgLogo allows a low-privileged authenticated user to read arbitrary .png or .svg files from outside the intended organisation logo directory by injecting traversal sequences into organisation-controlled fields such as the organisation name, id, or uuid. All MISP versions prior to the patch commit b865deb are affected across any deployment where untrusted accounts hold write access to organisation fields. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis; however, the attack requires only low-privilege access and no user interaction, making it practically exploitable in typical multi-tenant MISP deployments.
Path traversal in Discourse's backup download handler allows an authenticated administrator on one site within a multisite deployment to retrieve backup archives belonging to a co-hosted site on the same server. Backup files typically contain full database dumps, private messages, user credentials, and email addresses, making cross-site access a serious trust-boundary violation. No public exploit has been identified and EPSS sits at 0.04% (12th percentile), reflecting the narrow exploitation conditions; vendor-released patches are available across all affected release trains.
Path traversal across multiple endpoints in Actual, the open-source self-hosted personal finance application, allows authenticated low-privilege users to write files outside intended server directories in all versions prior to 26.5.0. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms network-accessible exploitation with low-privilege authentication required and impact limited to write operations on the vulnerable system only - no confidentiality or availability impact is indicated. No active exploitation has been confirmed (not in CISA KEV), and the EPSS score of 0.03% (8th percentile) reflects minimal observed exploitation interest at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file write in GeoServer's Master Password Dump web page allows an authenticated administrator to write attacker-controlled content to any absolute filesystem path the GeoServer process can write to, including JSP files in a Tomcat webapps directory. Because GeoServer enforces no maximum master password length, an admin can embed malicious JSP code into the master password and dump it to an executable location, escalating to remote code execution on the host. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not in CISA KEV.
Path traversal in IEI Integration Corp's iVEC TANK-XM811 Virtualization Edge Computer enables authenticated remote attackers to create directories at arbitrary system paths outside the application's intended scope. The flaw (CWE-22) resides in the network-accessible management interface, where user-supplied path input is not sufficiently sanitized before use in filesystem operations. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, and the impact is constrained to unauthorized directory creation rather than file read, write, or code execution.
Arbitrary file read via path traversal in IEI Integration Corp's iVEC TANK-XM811 edge computing platform exposes sensitive system files to privileged remote attackers. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/PR:H/VC:H) confirms network-accessible exploitation requiring high-privilege credentials, with full confidentiality impact on the vulnerable system and no integrity or availability impact. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing is identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was reported by Taiwan CERT (TWCERT) and affects all known firmware versions per CPE wildcard.
Path traversal in Apple macOS prior to Sequoia 15.4 allows a locally-installed application to bypass directory path restrictions and read sensitive user data outside its permitted file system scope. The flaw (CWE-22) stems from insufficient validation of directory path components in macOS path parsing logic, enabling a rogue or compromised app running with standard user privileges to traverse into restricted locations. No public exploit code has been identified and the CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; SSVC assessment confirms no known active exploitation at the time of this analysis.
Static file confinement bypass in @hapi/inert (npm, versions 4.0.0-7.1.0) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from sibling directories when those directories share a string prefix with the configured serve path. The flaw is a classic CWE-22 path traversal rooted in a faulty string-prefix comparison that fails to enforce a directory separator boundary, meaning a path like /app/static-secret incorrectly passes the confinement check for a serve root of /app/static. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE is not in CISA KEV, but the attack itself - a single URL-encoded traversal request - is trivially simple once the precondition of a matching-prefix sibling directory is confirmed.
Path traversal in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR engine on Linux enables arbitrary file write to the host system by an unauthenticated adjacent-network attacker who can intercept and manipulate outbound network response traffic via MITM. The referenced NVD entry for CVE-2007-4559 - the canonical Python tarfile path traversal - strongly suggests XSOAR's content pack or update download pipeline uses Python's tarfile module without path sanitization, allowing a poisoned archive to escape the extraction directory. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the CVSS 4.0 supplemental metrics classify exploitation as unreported (E:U), though the attack is rated automatable (AU:Y) once MITM positioning is achieved.
Path traversal via crafted .7z archive in bit7z before v4.0.12 on POSIX platforms allows an attacker-controlled symlink to escape the extraction directory by exactly one level - up to the parent directory. Any archive entries extracted after the malicious symlink is placed will write attacker-controlled files to the parent of the intended output path, carrying the permissions of the extracting process. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; the vendor-confirmed fix ships in version 4.0.12.
Path traversal in Ghidra's IsfServer component (all versions before 12.2) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to enumerate filesystem paths and probe arbitrary files by connecting to TCP port 54321 and sending crafted protobuf messages. The root cause is unsanitized client-supplied namespace strings passed directly to filesystem operations, a CWE-22 defect. Given Ghidra's deployment context - security research, malware analysis, and reverse engineering of sensitive artifacts, often in high-value government and defense environments - successful exploitation could expose directory structures and sensitive file metadata on the analyst's workstation. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability is not in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Path traversal in Ghidra's SameDirDebugInfoProvider (versions before 12.1) enables filesystem probing and CRC32 hash leakage of arbitrary files when a user opens a crafted ELF binary during automatic DWARF analysis. The vulnerability stems from missing validation of filenames embedded in ELF .gnu_debuglink sections before those filenames are used to construct filesystem paths. No public exploit code is currently identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the risk is notable for security researchers and reverse engineers who routinely analyze untrusted binaries.
Path traversal in QNAP QTS and QuTS hero NAS operating systems exposes arbitrary file contents to attackers who have already obtained administrator-level access. The root cause (CWE-22) indicates insufficient sanitization of file path inputs, allowing directory escape to reach files outside intended scope. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA KEV lists no active exploitation - making this a targeted post-compromise risk rather than an opportunistic mass-exploitation scenario. Vendor-released patches address all affected branches as of May 2026.
Path traversal in QNAP License Center (versions 1.9.0 through 1.9.55) permits a high-privileged attacker with an administrator account to read arbitrary files or system data outside the intended directory scope. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/PR:H) indicates network-reachable exploitation contingent on first obtaining administrative credentials. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; a vendor-released patch is available in version 1.9.56.
Path traversal in Adobe CAI Content Credentials SDK (c2pa-web@0.7.1 and c2pa-v0.80.1 and earlier) permits arbitrary file writes outside the intended extraction directory when a victim opens a maliciously crafted C2PA content credentials file. The CVSS vector confirms a local attack surface (AV:L) with high integrity impact (I:H) and no confidentiality or availability impact, meaning an attacker's primary capability is unauthorized file placement on the target filesystem. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis.
Hermes WebUI's SSH/remote terminal workspace resolver exposes local server files to authenticated low-privilege attackers by accepting system directories as trusted workspace roots. The flaw in `_remote_terminal_workspace_candidate()` (`api/workspace.py`) causes an early return that bypasses the `_is_blocked_workspace_path()` guard, allowing an attacker-configured remote terminal working directory (e.g., `/etc`) to be registered as a trusted workspace - after which workspace file-read helpers treat it as a local path and return host file contents. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 4.0 vector scores SC:H (high subsequent-system confidentiality impact), confirming meaningful server-side file disclosure potential.
Relative path traversal in Visual Studio Code versions prior to 1.123.1 enables unauthenticated remote attackers to tamper with files outside the intended directory boundary, producing a high integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability loss. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R) indicates the attack requires no privileges and is low-complexity over a network, but depends on a victim interacting with attacker-controlled content. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis.
Mac Photo Gallery 3.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the albid parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Apptha Slider Gallery 1.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the imgname parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WP Vault 0.8.6.6 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by exploiting an unescaped parameter in the include functionality. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in TYPO3 CMS's GeneralUtility::isAllowedAbsPath() allows authenticated administrator-level users to define File Abstraction Layer (FAL) storage roots that resolve to directories outside the project root. Affected versions span all active TYPO3 branches: before 10.4.57, 11.0.0-11.5.51, 12.0.0-12.4.46, 13.0.0-13.4.31, and 14.0.0-14.3.3. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog; the CVSS 4.0 score of 2.1 reflects the severe privilege and prerequisite constraints that substantially limit real-world impact.
Path traversal in awxkit's YAML !include directive exposes arbitrary local files when a user imports a crafted YAML file via the AWX CLI. Affecting Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2, the vulnerability (CWE-22) allows an unauthenticated attacker who can deliver a malicious YAML file to a victim to read arbitrary YAML-formatted files from that user's local filesystem - including potentially sensitive configuration, credential, or key material files - without any write or execution capability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; CVSS 4.7 reflects the real-world constraints of local attack vector, high complexity, and mandatory user interaction.
Path traversal in Siemens SINEC INS versions prior to V1.0 SP2 Update 6 exposes arbitrary file system locations via the SFTP directory listing endpoint. An authenticated low-privileged network attacker can send a crafted path to GET /api/sftp/uploadFiles to read files outside the intended directory scope, resulting in unauthorized disclosure of file system contents. No active exploitation or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis; the impact is limited to confidentiality with no integrity or availability consequence.
Path traversal in Apache Airflow's Samba provider exposes Samba target file systems to arbitrary write operations when GCSToSambaOperator processes GCS object names containing directory traversal sequences. Disclosed on 2026-06-09 via the oss-security mailing list by Apache committer Jarek Potiuk as a pre-NVD disclosure, the vulnerability enables any party who can influence GCS object names in the source bucket to write files outside the intended destination directory on the Samba share. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CVSS scoring is not yet available.
Path traversal in the HarmonyOS SMS application allows unauthenticated remote attackers to impact integrity and availability on affected Huawei devices. Exploitation requires user interaction - a victim must engage with a crafted message - but no privileges or special authentication are needed from the attacker's side, lowering the barrier to reach a target. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis; this appears to be a vendor-disclosed issue patched in the June 2026 Huawei security bulletin.
Path traversal in Spring Framework's static resource resolution exposes arbitrary server files to unauthenticated remote attackers across both Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux stacks. Four major release lines - 5.3.x, 6.1.x, 6.2.x, and 7.0.x - are affected, making this a broad-surface issue for the Java ecosystem. The CVSS vector confirms unauthenticated network access with high confidentiality impact, though the AC:H designation indicates non-trivial exploit conditions; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Arbitrary file deletion in bookcars v8.3 allows unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files via directory traversal in the /api/delete-temp-license/{file} endpoint. Exploitation is simple and requires no authentication, with a proof-of-concept publicly available. EPSS score of 0.12% indicates low likelihood of widespread exploitation currently.
Path traversal in Dulwich's porcelain.format_patch function allows patch files to be written outside the intended output directory by processing commits with malicious subject lines. Any service passing untrusted commits to dulwich.porcelain.format_patch(outdir=...) - such as CI pipelines, PR review platforms, or developer tooling processing third-party repositories - is affected in versions 0.24.0 through 1.2.4. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, but the attack pattern is trivially reproducible from the advisory description alone; exploitation requires no special tooling beyond crafting a commit with a subject like 'x/../../target'.
WordPress Plugin admin-word-count-column 2.2 contains a local file read vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by exploiting null byte injection in the path. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in hsweb-framework up to version 5.0.1 allows authenticated remote attackers to write files outside the intended upload directory by manipulating the filename argument in the file upload component. The root cause is insufficient sanitization of path sequences — including URL-encoded variants (`..%2F`) and Windows-style backslashes (`..\`) — in the `denied` function of `FileUploadProperties.java`. A public exploit has been disclosed via GitHub issue #344, and a patch commit is available; no KEV listing indicates opportunistic rather than confirmed mass exploitation.
Path traversal in jishenghua jshERP up to version 3.6 allows authenticated remote attackers to manipulate the `fileName` argument at the `addAccountHeadAndDetail` endpoint, producing limited but confirmed integrity and availability impacts (I:L/A:L). The vulnerability is in `AccountHeadService.java` within the Java ERP application, and a proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly disclosed via the project's GitHub issue tracker. The vendor had not responded to the responsible disclosure at time of reporting, and no patch is available.
Path traversal in iAI Lab PDF AI App 4.21.0 on Android allows a local low-privileged attacker to manipulate the `_display_name` argument within the `getExternalCacheDir` function of the `chatpdf.pro` component, enabling unauthorized file system access outside the intended cache directory. The CVSS 4.0 score of 1.9 reflects the strictly local attack surface and limited integrity and availability impact with no confidentiality breach. A public proof-of-concept exploit has been released; the vendor was contacted prior to disclosure and did not respond, leaving the vulnerability unpatched.
Path traversal in the Quick Playground WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 1.3.4) exposes arbitrary server files to authenticated administrators. The flaw exists in client-qckply_data.php where the qckply_data() function forwards a user-supplied filename POST parameter directly into file_get_contents() without sanitization, enabling traversal sequences to escape the webroot and reach files such as wp-config.php or /etc/passwd. No public exploit exists and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but exploitation would yield database credentials and other secrets with high confidentiality impact.
Directory traversal in the LearnPress - Backup & Migration Tool plugin for WordPress (all versions through 4.1.4) allows authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files on the underlying server by supplying path traversal sequences via the 'import-user-file' parameter. Exploitation exposes highly sensitive server-side content - including wp-config.php database credentials, private keys, or system files - despite requiring high-privilege access. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The CVSS score of 4.9 reflects the high privilege barrier (PR:H), but the C:H confidentiality impact makes successful exploitation consequential.
Directory traversal in the Smart Slider 3 WordPress plugin (all versions ≤ 3.5.1.36) exposes arbitrary server-side files to authenticated administrators via the replaceHTMLImage function in the plugin's slider export/backup subsystem. An attacker with administrator-level WordPress access can craft a request that traverses outside the intended directory and return the raw contents of sensitive files such as wp-config.php. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, and the high privilege requirement (CVSS PR:H) substantially limits the realistic attack surface to insider threats, compromised admin accounts, or privilege-escalation chains.
Path traversal in AnythingLLM's document folder listing endpoint on Windows allows authenticated low-privilege users to enumerate directories outside the intended documents directory. The root cause is a platform-specific gap in the shared path containment helper: it correctly rejects POSIX-style '../' sequences but fails to reject Windows-style parent path segments produced by Node.js path.relative(), such as bare '..'. No active exploitation has been confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified, consistent with the Medium CVSS score of 4.3 and the authentication requirement.
Path traversal in the mise HTTP backend allows a repository-controlled `.tool-versions` file to direct `mise install` to create symlinks at arbitrary filesystem locations outside the designated mise installs root on Unix-like systems. Affecting mise up to version 2026.5.16, a developer or CI system that runs `mise install` against a malicious project can have executable symlinks silently placed under attacker-chosen `PATH` directories, enabling replacement of trusted commands with attacker-controlled HTTP content. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the detailed proof-of-concept published in GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-f94h-j2qg-fxw3, and no CISA KEV listing confirms active in-the-wild exploitation.
Open redirect in Gogs versions up to and including 0.14.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to craft login URLs that redirect authenticated users to arbitrary external sites after successful login. The root cause is a two-character-only URL validation in the `IsSameSite()` function: the path `/a/../\example.com` passes server-side inspection but resolves to `//example.com` after browsers normalize backslashes to forward slashes. A publicly available proof-of-concept with screenshots exists; this vulnerability is not in CISA KEV and active exploitation has not been confirmed at time of analysis.
Out-of-bounds read and denial-of-service in Zephyr RTOS's ext2 filesystem parser expose embedded devices to filesystem-level attacks via maliciously crafted disk images. The flaw resides in ext2_fetch_direntry() (subsys/fs/ext2/ext2_diskops.c), where insufficient validation of on-disk directory entry fields - specifically de_rec_len and de_name_len against block boundaries - allows a crafted ext2 image to trigger an oversized memcpy (out-of-bounds read) or a zero-progress infinite loop when de_rec_len equals zero. All Zephyr versions are indicated as affected per the wildcard CPE, no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Path traversal and sandbox escape in LangChain prior to 1.3.9 allow untrusted inputs - including LLM-generated content steered by adversarial prompts - to escape a configured filesystem root boundary. Three components are affected: a file-search agent middleware that validates a starting directory but not glob patterns or symlink targets; prompt and chain/agent configuration loaders that resolve path fields without root confinement; and path-prefix authorization logic that performs string-prefix comparison without segment boundaries, allowing sibling paths to bypass access controls. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE does not appear in CISA KEV, but the risk is meaningful for any deployment that exposes LangChain filesystem agents to untrusted user input or LLM prompt injection.
Path traversal in motionEye v0.43.1 allows any authenticated user - including those with normal (non-admin) privileges - to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem via the picture and movie preview API endpoints. The root cause is inconsistent input validation: `get_media_preview()` and `del_media_content()` in `mediafiles.py` omit the `..` sequence check that `get_media_content()` correctly implements, and the Tornado web framework passes percent-encoded slashes (`%2F`) through unmodified to `os.path.join()`. A fully functional public proof-of-concept demonstrating retrieval of `/etc/passwd` is published in the GitHub security advisory; no public exploit identified at time of analysis for CISA KEV, but the low exploitation complexity and pre-computable default-credential signature make exposed instances an immediate practical target.
Path traversal in Keras 3.14.0 exposes local file systems to arbitrary file and directory creation when processing maliciously crafted model files. The DiskIOStore.make method constructs directory paths from user-supplied layer names without sanitizing directory traversal sequences (..); since only forward slashes are blocked, embedding .. components in a layer name allows escape from the intended temporary working directory during model save or load operations. No active exploitation (CISA KEV) and no public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis; however, EPSS data was not provided, leaving probabilistic exploitation likelihood unquantified.
Sensitive file exfiltration in GitHub Copilot 1.372.0 (VS Code Copilot Chat extension) arises because the fetch_webpage tool accepts file-handler URIs, letting the agent read files outside the trusted workspace folder without user approval; when combined with indirect prompt injection, an attacker who plants malicious instructions in content the agent processes can coerce Copilot into reading arbitrary local files and sending their contents to an attacker endpoint. CVSS 7.5 reflects confidentiality-only impact (C:H/I:N/A:N). No public exploit is confirmed at time of analysis, though a third-party research write-up (blindcyber.com) describes the technique; the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV and EPSS is low at 0.36%.
Path traversal in FlowiseAI Flowise's S3 Document Loader component (packages/components/nodes/documentloaders/S3/S3.ts) enables authenticated remote attackers to manipulate S3 object key inputs to access files outside the intended storage scope. Versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.2 are confirmed affected. Publicly available exploit code exists (E:P in the CVSS 4.0 vector), and the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure, leaving no vendor-confirmed patch at time of analysis.
Path traversal in Allure Report's built-in HTTP server (allure-commandline <= 2.38.1) allows any client that can reach the server port to read arbitrary files accessible to the Allure process. The vulnerability exists in Commands.setUpServer() where request URI paths are resolved against the report directory without normalization or containment checks, and Java's URI.getPath() additionally percent-decodes sequences like %2e%2e to .., bypassing client-side normalization. A proof-of-concept is publicly available via the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-82cg-3hv7-74gc; no CISA KEV listing has been confirmed at time of analysis, though real-world risk is materially elevated in CI/CD environments where --host 0.0.0.0 is commonly used.
Symlink-chain path traversal in the go.qbee.io/transport library's extractTar routine allows a crafted tar archive to write or overwrite files one directory level above the intended extraction path. Applications using this library with elevated privileges - specifically qbee-agent, which runs as root - face the most severe impact, as exploitation enables root-privileged arbitrary file writes outside the extraction sandbox. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis; vendor-released patch v1.26.25 resolves the issue.
Path traversal in Kestra's `inputFiles` task mechanism allows remote attackers to write arbitrary files to the worker filesystem when flows forward untrusted webhook or execution data as file names. Affected across four release branches (prior to 1.3.19, 1.2.19, 1.1.19, and 1.0.43), exploitation depends on a specific flow design pattern but requires no authentication if the target webhook is publicly accessible. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS integrity impact is rated High due to the ability to create or overwrite files outside the task working directory.
Path traversal in the YARD Ruby documentation server (prior to 0.9.44) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary `.html` files from directories outside the configured document root by supplying crafted `../`-containing request paths such as `/../yard-cache-secret.html`. The flaw exists because the static cache lookup in `StaticCaching#check_static_cache` constructs a filesystem path from the raw `request.path` before the router's own path-sanitization logic runs, enabling traversal to sibling directories. No active exploitation has been identified (not in CISA KEV) and no public POC exists at time of analysis; the vendor-released fix is version 0.9.44.
Arbitrary local file disclosure in the Rust crate tract-onnx (by Sonos) allows an attacker who supplies a malicious ONNX model file to read arbitrary files from the victim's filesystem at model-load time, with file contents surfaced directly in inference tensor output. The root cause is that `get_external_resources()` in `onnx/src/tensor.rs` passes the attacker-controlled `location` field of ONNX external-data tensors directly to `PathBuf::join()` without sanitization, enabling both absolute-path overrides and relative `../` traversal. A secondary denial-of-service (panic) is possible via out-of-bounds `offset`/`length` values. Publicly available exploit code exists (full PoC confirmed on tract-onnx 0.21.16); no active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Path traversal in AIL Framework's `/objects/item/diff` endpoint exposes gzip-compressed server-side files to authenticated users. The Flask blueprint route in `var/www/blueprints/objects_item.py` accepted arbitrary item identifiers via `s1` and `s2` query parameters and attempted to read and compare their contents without first verifying they resolved to legitimate AIL objects, enabling directory traversal sequences to escape the items directory. No active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; CIRCL reported the issue and an upstream fix is available via a GitHub commit.
Path traversal in MicroCeph's remote-import API allows enrolled cluster members or join token holders to manipulate files within the `/var/snap/microceph` snap confinement boundary, enabling daemon disruption and cluster state pollution across the squid and tentacle release tracks. The root cause is missing input validation on `name` and `LocalName` parameters in `cmdRemotePut`, permitting `..` sequences to reach unintended directories. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; an upstream fix exists as GitHub PR #758 with no confirmed tagged snap release.
Arbitrary file read via path traversal in the Woosa - Marktplaats for WooCommerce WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 2.0.4) permits authenticated WordPress administrators to escape the plugin's log directory and access any file readable by the web server process, including the sensitive wp-config.php file. The flaw exists in the render_logs_ui() function within class-module-logger-hook-settings.php, which decodes a base64-supplied filename from the log_file GET parameter and concatenates it with the log directory path without any boundary enforcement. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; the attack surface is meaningfully constrained by the Administrator-level privilege requirement (PR:H), though successful exploitation could cascade into full site compromise via exposed database credentials.
Unauthenticated SSRF in signalk-server ≤2.27.0 allows remote attackers to force the server to make arbitrary HTTP/HTTPS requests to any destination, including RFC 1918 private ranges, loopback, and cloud metadata services at 169.254.169.254. On default installations where no admin user has been created, the security middleware is a no-op, meaning all three vulnerable endpoints are completely unauthenticated over the network. A detailed public PoC is included in the GitHub advisory demonstrating internal network scanning, AWS IAM credential theft via IMDSv1, and path-traversal-assisted targeted data exfiltration; no CISA KEV listing is present at time of analysis.
Path traversal and query-string injection in the OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib Sentry exporter allows any OTLP span sender to redirect the collector's operator bearer token to arbitrary Sentry API endpoints - including privileged admin, organization, and member management endpoints. The vulnerability stems from the `service.name` span attribute being interpolated directly into Sentry API URLs via `fmt.Sprintf` without validation, while the existing `projectSlugRegexp` safeguard is only applied to operator-configured mappings and never to runtime-derived slugs. No CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the GHSA advisory provides detailed exploitation steps demonstrating both a universally reliable query-string injection vector and a nginx-dependent path traversal vector, with a fixed version available at 0.154.0.
Grav CMS (getgrav/grav < 1.7.53) exposes admin bcrypt password hashes, SMTP credentials, and full site configuration to any actor who can obtain a session-static admin-nonce value - via XSS, Referrer header leakage, browser history, or proxy logs - because the backup download endpoint enforces only a single URL-embedded nonce with no form-level CSRF token and no session binding. The default backup profile archives the entire GRAV_ROOT directory including user/accounts/ and user/config/ without exclusions, and the download handler Base64-encodes the absolute filesystem path in the response URL, leaking server internals. A fully functional public PoC is available; no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but downstream risk includes offline hashcat cracking followed by unauthenticated admin login with no server-side rate limiting.
Path traversal in libzypp's .repo file processing enables low-privileged network-accessible attackers to write content into arbitrary directories on the host filesystem beyond the intended zypp cache boundary. Affected versions span the 17.x series before 17.38.13 and the 16.x series before 16.22.19, covering systems running SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE derivatives that use zypper as their package manager. The primary real-world impact is disk exhaustion across unexpected filesystem paths, causing a denial of service; no confidentiality impact is attributed in the CVSS assessment. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file write in BBOT's postman_download module enables a remote attacker to write files outside the intended output directory on a victim's system by controlling a Postman workspace name containing path traversal sequences. When a user runs the postman_download module, BBOT fetches workspace names from the Postman API and constructs local filesystem paths without sanitization, allowing pathlib to resolve paths into arbitrary locations on the victim's host. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though the attack primitive is straightforward given the publicly committed fix details and low attack complexity.
Path traversal in BBOT's unarchive internal module enables a malicious archive hosted by attacker-controlled infrastructure to write files outside the intended extraction directory when BBOT runs on systems with GNU tar < 1.34. This vulnerability is a residual gap from CVE-2025-10284, which resolved git-specific RCE vectors but left the underlying archive extraction path validation entirely unimplemented, relying instead on inconsistent external tool behavior across platforms. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; the CVSS vector (AC:H/UI:R) constrains real-world risk to BBOT operators actively scanning attacker-controlled targets on affected OS distributions, but the high integrity impact (I:H) and zero privilege requirement (PR:N) are significant for red-team and CI/CD BBOT deployments running on legacy base images.
Open redirect in Gitea's login flow allows external domain hijacking by bypassing the `urlIsRelative` validation in `modules/httplib/url.go` through a combination of directory traversal sequences and a backslash in the `redirect_to` parameter. All Gitea instances running version 1.25.4 and below are affected; a working proof-of-concept is publicly available in the GitHub Security Advisory. Exploitation enables phishing via trusted Gitea domains, OAuth/SSO authorization code theft, Referer-header leakage of sensitive parameters, and potential cache poisoning — no public exploit identified as confirmed actively exploited (CISA KEV absent).
Sibling-prefix path traversal in open-webui 0.9.5 and earlier allows any authenticated user to read arbitrary files from directories adjacent to the configured cache directory, provided those directories share the string prefix 'cache' (e.g., cache_backup, cached_models). The flaw exists in serve_cache_file() at main.py:2914, where a missing trailing path separator in the startswith boundary check causes os.path.abspath() to validate resolved sibling paths as if they were within the cache root. Publicly available exploit code exists in the GHSA advisory (PoC confirmed against open-webui 0.9.5 via raw ASGI delivery); no confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) at time of analysis.
Path traversal in EMV JobCareer WordPress theme versions up to and including 7.3 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files outside the intended directory, leading to high availability impact with scope change. Reported by Patchstack and tracked under CWE-22, this flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.6, though no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The Patchstack advisory characterizes this as an arbitrary file deletion vulnerability rather than a read primitive.
Unauthenticated arbitrary file deletion in the WorkScout-Core WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.7.11) allows any remote attacker to delete files on the underlying server without credentials. The flaw stems from a path traversal weakness (CWE-22) in a file-handling endpoint that fails to sanitize user-supplied input before constructing filesystem paths. Exploitation requires no authentication, no user interaction, and no special configuration, meaning every publicly reachable WordPress installation running this plugin version is exposed; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in QuantumCloud Conversational Forms for ChatBot allows Path Traversal.1.8. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
Arbitrary file download via path traversal in the Client Portal (Pro) WordPress plugin versions 5.6.2 and earlier exposes sensitive server-side files to authenticated low-privilege users. The CWE-22 flaw allows any registered portal user to craft a file request that escapes the intended directory boundary and retrieve arbitrary files accessible to the web server process - including wp-config.php containing database credentials. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the high confidentiality impact combined with low attack complexity makes this a meaningful data exposure risk on affected WordPress installations.
Arbitrary file deletion in QuantumCloud WPBot Pro WordPress Chatbot plugin versions 13.6.5 and earlier allows authenticated subscriber-level users to delete arbitrary files on the WordPress host via a path traversal flaw. With no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the issue still carries elevated risk because exploitation requires only the lowest-privilege WordPress role, which is auto-grantable on sites that allow open registration. Deleting files such as wp-config.php can trigger the WordPress install routine and lead to full site takeover.
Arbitrary file read in Runtipi 4.9.1-4.9.3 exposes sensitive container secrets via symlink following in an unauthenticated app-store logo endpoint. An attacker who controls a Git-based app-store repository can embed a symbolic link as a marketplace logo file; because the path guard performs only lexical validation before Node.js reads the file, Runtipi resolves and returns the symlink target, potentially leaking /data/.env, JWT secrets, service credentials, and seed values to any unauthenticated requester. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor-confirmed fix is available in v4.10.0.
Arbitrary file deletion in evolution-data-server's addressbook file backend exposes host filesystem to manipulation by a Flatpak application with D-Bus access. The vulnerability exploits split validation logic: a crafted URI embedding directory traversal sequences (e.g., '../') is accepted without sufficient sanitization during contact creation or modification, but when the same URI is later processed at deletion time, a second, less restrictive check fails to catch the traversal - allowing files outside the intended addressbook directory to be removed. Critically, deletion of Flatpak override files could be leveraged to silently weaken sandbox restrictions for subsequent application runs. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file deletion in the Car Zone WordPress theme (versions through 3.7) by Aivah Themes lets remote, unauthenticated attackers remove files on the underlying server through a path-traversal flaw. The CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/A:H) reflects that file deletion crosses scope into the broader WordPress installation, enabling denial-of-service or forced reinstall scenarios. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not in CISA KEV.
Unauthenticated arbitrary file download affects the 'WordPress & WooCommerce Scraper Plugin, Import Data from Any Site' plugin by Extendons in versions up to and including 1.0.7. Remote attackers can exploit a path traversal weakness (CWE-22) to retrieve arbitrary files from the underlying web server without any authentication, exposing sensitive data such as wp-config.php credentials. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the network-reachable, no-privilege CVSS profile (7.5) makes opportunistic mass-scanning by WordPress vulnerability scanners likely once disclosed.
BYONM module resolution in Deno (≤ 2.7.11) allows path traversal via crafted `package.json` `main` fields, bypassing the `--allow-read` permission sandbox that is central to Deno's security model. A malicious npm package installed under a BYONM `node_modules` tree can cause `require()` to read and return the parsed contents of arbitrary JSON files outside the directory scope granted by `--allow-read`, while a direct `Deno.readTextFileSync()` call to the same path would be correctly blocked. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but a self-contained proof-of-concept was supplied by the reporter and is documented in the GitHub Security Advisory; real-world risk is meaningful in supply-chain scenarios where Deno's permission model is the primary isolation boundary.
The Git node in n8n's workflow automation platform allows authenticated workflow editors to exfiltrate arbitrary host filesystem contents by supplying local paths as git repository sources in Clone or Push operations, bypassing the N8N_RESTRICT_FILE_ACCESS_TO sandbox entirely. Any git repository readable by the n8n process - including directories containing SSH keys, environment files, or database credentials - can be cloned into an allowed output path and read back through normal workflow outputs. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the attack complexity is genuinely low for any user holding workflow editing permissions, and vendor-confirmed patches are available in versions 1.123.48, 2.21.8, and 2.22.4.
Path traversal in Langflow's Knowledge Bases API (POST /api/v1/knowledge_bases) allows authenticated users to create directories and write controlled JSON files outside their designated storage boundary anywhere on the server filesystem. Versions up to and including langflow 1.8.4 (pip) are confirmed affected; the root cause is the unsanitized use of a user-supplied `name` field in path construction within `create_knowledge_base`. A public proof-of-concept is included in the GHSA advisory, lowering the exploitation bar considerably, though no CISA KEV listing confirms active widespread exploitation at time of analysis.
Static file disclosure in Hono's serve-static middleware on Windows allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read files protected behind prefix-mounted middleware by submitting a URL-encoded backslash (%5C) in the request path. Hono versions prior to 4.12.25 are affected when deployed on Windows using the Node, Bun, or Deno adapters with an auth or access-control middleware guarding a static subtree. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the attack primitive is trivially constructable from the public advisory.
Parameter smuggling in python-multipart below 0.0.30 allows unauthenticated network attackers to present a different field name or filename to an upstream WAF, proxy, or gateway than the value actually delivered to the backend application. The root cause is that parse_options_header delegates to Python's email.message.Message, which silently applies RFC 2231/5987 extended parameter decoding - a behavior explicitly forbidden for multipart/form-data by RFC 7578 §4.2 - causing the extended value to override the plain parameter and bypass inspection logic. Concrete downstream consequences include circumventing filename-based upload controls and, where applications construct filesystem paths from the parsed filename without sanitization, achieving path traversal via decoded percent sequences such as ..%2F or injecting null bytes (%00) to confuse validators. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not in CISA KEV; CVSS 3.7 with AC:H reflects that exploitation requires a specific upstream inspector in the deployment topology.
Path traversal in the WordPress Download Monitor plugin (versions <= 5.1.9, by WP Chill) allows a network-accessible attacker with Author-level WordPress credentials to download arbitrary files from the server, achieving high confidentiality impact. The vulnerability (CWE-22) stems from improper sanitization of file paths within the plugin's download functionality, enabling directory traversal outside the intended file scope. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS data was provided to quantify exploitation probability.
Arbitrary file deletion in Meta Box - WordPress Custom Fields Framework versions 5.11.1 and earlier exposes servers to filesystem damage through a path traversal flaw (CWE-22) accessible to WordPress Contributor-level users. By embedding traversal sequences in a crafted file deletion request, an authenticated Contributor can delete files outside the intended plugin directory, potentially reaching critical server or WordPress installation files. No active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; however, the scope-changed CVSS metric indicates that impact can extend beyond the WordPress application boundary to the underlying server filesystem.
Arbitrary source map file read in @babel/core allows an attacker who controls Babel's input source code to exfiltrate any source map file (.map) accessible to the process running Babel, provided the attacker can also read the compilation output and knows the target file path. This affects all @babel/core versions up to and including 7.29.0 and the 8.0.0 alpha/rc series prior to 8.0.0-rc.6. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, and exploitation is constrained by three simultaneous conditions, but the vulnerability is significant in environments that compile untrusted or externally submitted code - such as online transpilers, CI/CD pipelines accepting external PRs, or multi-tenant build services.
WordPress Plugin HB Audio Gallery Lite 1.0.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the file_path parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress Brandfolder plugin version 3.0 and earlier contains a local file inclusion vulnerability in callback.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to include arbitrary files by manipulating the. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.

WordPress IMDb Profile Widget 1.0.8 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by manipulating the url parameter. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WordPress Simple-Backup 2.7.11 contains multiple vulnerabilities that allow unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files and download sensitive files by manipulating the delete_backup_file and. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in Wertheim SafeController Software (AssemblyVersion 6.15.8328.28014) enables an authenticated user holding the settings_branches_manage privilege to embed directory traversal sequences in a newly created branch code, redirecting downstream file-write operations — covering uploaded files, profile pictures, and settings data — to attacker-chosen filesystem locations. The root cause is insufficient server-side validation of the branch code field at branch creation time; that tainted value later propagates into multiple file-path-generation routines across the application. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code has been identified; real-world impact is bounded by both the service account's write permissions and length restrictions on the branch code value.
Path traversal in the Intelbras iNVU 7016 FT NVR web interface allows authenticated high-privilege remote users to read arbitrary files outside the intended syslog directory via the /RPC2_Loadfile/syslog/ endpoint. Affected firmware is version 3.004.00IB000.0.T Build 2025-09-26; the vendor has since released a patched firmware build (2026-05-29). No public exploit identified at time of analysis as KEV-confirmed active exploitation, but a public proof-of-concept writeup exists, elevating practical risk above baseline.
Path traversal in Microweber CMS up to version 2.0.20 exposes the unauthenticated `/api_nosession/thumbnail_img` endpoint to file system manipulation via the `cache_path_relative` parameter of the `userfiles_path` function. Remote, unauthenticated attackers can traverse outside the intended directory to read - and potentially write - files accessible to the web server process. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available and the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure, meaning no patch exists at time of analysis.
Path traversal in the Store Locator WordPress plugin before version 1.6.9 enables authenticated administrators to read arbitrary PHP files from the server filesystem, including wp-config.php, which contains database credentials and WordPress secret keys. The vulnerability stems from an unvalidated parameter passed directly into a file path, allowing traversal sequences to escape the intended directory. A publicly available proof-of-concept exists per WPScan reporting, though EPSS sits at 0.04% (12th percentile) and no KEV listing exists, indicating low observed exploitation activity despite the public PoC.
Privilege escalation in Grafana Operator (all versions ≤ 5.23) allows any user with Kubernetes RBAC permissions to create GrafanaDashboard or GrafanaLibraryPanel resources to steal the Kubernetes service account token of the operator manager pod. The jsonnet templating language, supported via spec.jsonnetLib, is evaluated unsandboxed inside the operator manager pod, enabling a path traversal payload to read sensitive files - including the mounted service account token - and exfiltrate it through the resulting dashboard output. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but successful exploitation yields cluster-level privilege escalation, reflected in the vendor-assigned CVSS 4.0 subsequent-system impact of SC:H/SI:H.
Arbitrary file read in the LWS Optimize WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 3.3.19) permits authenticated users with Editor-level access or above to retrieve any file readable by the web-server process, including sensitive files such as wp-config.php. The vulnerable `combine_current_css()` function blindly trusts stylesheet href values harvested from page HTML, resolves them to absolute filesystem paths, and passes them to `file_get_contents()` without enforcing a safe-directory boundary or a `.css` extension check - a classic CWE-22 path traversal pattern. No public exploit has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, but the attack path is straightforward given the source code is publicly accessible in the WordPress plugin repository.
Directory traversal in Allegra's exportReport method exposes arbitrary server-side files to authenticated remote attackers, operating in the context of the underlying service account. The flaw affects all tracked versions per the CPE wildcard (cpe:2.3:a:allegra:allegra:*), with Alltena's 9.0.0 release notes referencing the fix. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS data was provided, but the CVSS 6.5 rating reflects a meaningful confidentiality risk for any internet-facing Allegra deployment where user accounts may be broadly provisioned.
Zip-slip path traversal in filebrowser v2.63.5 and earlier (Linux-hosted) allows any authenticated user with Create permission to plant a file whose name contains URL-encoded Windows-style backslash traversal sequences (`%5C`). The Linux server stores the file with a literal backslash in its name, which `filepath.ToSlash()` silently ignores, and the archive download handler emits that name verbatim into zip/tar central directories. When a Windows victim downloads and extracts the archive using Explorer, 7-Zip, WinRAR, or .NET `ZipFile.ExtractToDirectory`, the extractor interprets `\` as a path separator and writes files to arbitrary locations outside the extraction directory - enabling arbitrary file write on the victim's Windows machine. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the full PoC published in the GHSA advisory; EPSS is 0.03% (8th percentile), consistent with the two-party, victim-interaction requirement.
Path traversal in MISP's OrganisationsController::getOrgLogo allows a low-privileged authenticated user to read arbitrary .png or .svg files from outside the intended organisation logo directory by injecting traversal sequences into organisation-controlled fields such as the organisation name, id, or uuid. All MISP versions prior to the patch commit b865deb are affected across any deployment where untrusted accounts hold write access to organisation fields. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis; however, the attack requires only low-privilege access and no user interaction, making it practically exploitable in typical multi-tenant MISP deployments.
Path traversal in Discourse's backup download handler allows an authenticated administrator on one site within a multisite deployment to retrieve backup archives belonging to a co-hosted site on the same server. Backup files typically contain full database dumps, private messages, user credentials, and email addresses, making cross-site access a serious trust-boundary violation. No public exploit has been identified and EPSS sits at 0.04% (12th percentile), reflecting the narrow exploitation conditions; vendor-released patches are available across all affected release trains.
Path traversal across multiple endpoints in Actual, the open-source self-hosted personal finance application, allows authenticated low-privilege users to write files outside intended server directories in all versions prior to 26.5.0. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms network-accessible exploitation with low-privilege authentication required and impact limited to write operations on the vulnerable system only - no confidentiality or availability impact is indicated. No active exploitation has been confirmed (not in CISA KEV), and the EPSS score of 0.03% (8th percentile) reflects minimal observed exploitation interest at time of analysis.
Arbitrary file write in GeoServer's Master Password Dump web page allows an authenticated administrator to write attacker-controlled content to any absolute filesystem path the GeoServer process can write to, including JSP files in a Tomcat webapps directory. Because GeoServer enforces no maximum master password length, an admin can embed malicious JSP code into the master password and dump it to an executable location, escalating to remote code execution on the host. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not in CISA KEV.
Path traversal in IEI Integration Corp's iVEC TANK-XM811 Virtualization Edge Computer enables authenticated remote attackers to create directories at arbitrary system paths outside the application's intended scope. The flaw (CWE-22) resides in the network-accessible management interface, where user-supplied path input is not sufficiently sanitized before use in filesystem operations. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, and the impact is constrained to unauthorized directory creation rather than file read, write, or code execution.
Arbitrary file read via path traversal in IEI Integration Corp's iVEC TANK-XM811 edge computing platform exposes sensitive system files to privileged remote attackers. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/PR:H/VC:H) confirms network-accessible exploitation requiring high-privilege credentials, with full confidentiality impact on the vulnerable system and no integrity or availability impact. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing is identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was reported by Taiwan CERT (TWCERT) and affects all known firmware versions per CPE wildcard.
Path traversal in Apple macOS prior to Sequoia 15.4 allows a locally-installed application to bypass directory path restrictions and read sensitive user data outside its permitted file system scope. The flaw (CWE-22) stems from insufficient validation of directory path components in macOS path parsing logic, enabling a rogue or compromised app running with standard user privileges to traverse into restricted locations. No public exploit code has been identified and the CVE is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; SSVC assessment confirms no known active exploitation at the time of this analysis.
Static file confinement bypass in @hapi/inert (npm, versions 4.0.0-7.1.0) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from sibling directories when those directories share a string prefix with the configured serve path. The flaw is a classic CWE-22 path traversal rooted in a faulty string-prefix comparison that fails to enforce a directory separator boundary, meaning a path like /app/static-secret incorrectly passes the confinement check for a serve root of /app/static. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE is not in CISA KEV, but the attack itself - a single URL-encoded traversal request - is trivially simple once the precondition of a matching-prefix sibling directory is confirmed.
Path traversal in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR engine on Linux enables arbitrary file write to the host system by an unauthenticated adjacent-network attacker who can intercept and manipulate outbound network response traffic via MITM. The referenced NVD entry for CVE-2007-4559 - the canonical Python tarfile path traversal - strongly suggests XSOAR's content pack or update download pipeline uses Python's tarfile module without path sanitization, allowing a poisoned archive to escape the extraction directory. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the CVSS 4.0 supplemental metrics classify exploitation as unreported (E:U), though the attack is rated automatable (AU:Y) once MITM positioning is achieved.
Path traversal via crafted .7z archive in bit7z before v4.0.12 on POSIX platforms allows an attacker-controlled symlink to escape the extraction directory by exactly one level - up to the parent directory. Any archive entries extracted after the malicious symlink is placed will write attacker-controlled files to the parent of the intended output path, carrying the permissions of the extracting process. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; the vendor-confirmed fix ships in version 4.0.12.
Path traversal in Ghidra's IsfServer component (all versions before 12.2) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to enumerate filesystem paths and probe arbitrary files by connecting to TCP port 54321 and sending crafted protobuf messages. The root cause is unsanitized client-supplied namespace strings passed directly to filesystem operations, a CWE-22 defect. Given Ghidra's deployment context - security research, malware analysis, and reverse engineering of sensitive artifacts, often in high-value government and defense environments - successful exploitation could expose directory structures and sensitive file metadata on the analyst's workstation. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability is not in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Path traversal in Ghidra's SameDirDebugInfoProvider (versions before 12.1) enables filesystem probing and CRC32 hash leakage of arbitrary files when a user opens a crafted ELF binary during automatic DWARF analysis. The vulnerability stems from missing validation of filenames embedded in ELF .gnu_debuglink sections before those filenames are used to construct filesystem paths. No public exploit code is currently identified and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the risk is notable for security researchers and reverse engineers who routinely analyze untrusted binaries.
Path traversal in QNAP QTS and QuTS hero NAS operating systems exposes arbitrary file contents to attackers who have already obtained administrator-level access. The root cause (CWE-22) indicates insufficient sanitization of file path inputs, allowing directory escape to reach files outside intended scope. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CISA KEV lists no active exploitation - making this a targeted post-compromise risk rather than an opportunistic mass-exploitation scenario. Vendor-released patches address all affected branches as of May 2026.
Path traversal in QNAP License Center (versions 1.9.0 through 1.9.55) permits a high-privileged attacker with an administrator account to read arbitrary files or system data outside the intended directory scope. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/PR:H) indicates network-reachable exploitation contingent on first obtaining administrative credentials. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; a vendor-released patch is available in version 1.9.56.
Path traversal in Adobe CAI Content Credentials SDK (c2pa-web@0.7.1 and c2pa-v0.80.1 and earlier) permits arbitrary file writes outside the intended extraction directory when a victim opens a maliciously crafted C2PA content credentials file. The CVSS vector confirms a local attack surface (AV:L) with high integrity impact (I:H) and no confidentiality or availability impact, meaning an attacker's primary capability is unauthorized file placement on the target filesystem. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis.
Hermes WebUI's SSH/remote terminal workspace resolver exposes local server files to authenticated low-privilege attackers by accepting system directories as trusted workspace roots. The flaw in `_remote_terminal_workspace_candidate()` (`api/workspace.py`) causes an early return that bypasses the `_is_blocked_workspace_path()` guard, allowing an attacker-configured remote terminal working directory (e.g., `/etc`) to be registered as a trusted workspace - after which workspace file-read helpers treat it as a local path and return host file contents. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 4.0 vector scores SC:H (high subsequent-system confidentiality impact), confirming meaningful server-side file disclosure potential.
Relative path traversal in Visual Studio Code versions prior to 1.123.1 enables unauthenticated remote attackers to tamper with files outside the intended directory boundary, producing a high integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability loss. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R) indicates the attack requires no privileges and is low-complexity over a network, but depends on a victim interacting with attacker-controlled content. No public exploit code has been identified and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis.
Mac Photo Gallery 3.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the albid parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Apptha Slider Gallery 1.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the imgname parameter. Rated high severity (CVSS 8.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
WP Vault 0.8.6.6 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by exploiting an unescaped parameter in the include functionality. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in TYPO3 CMS's GeneralUtility::isAllowedAbsPath() allows authenticated administrator-level users to define File Abstraction Layer (FAL) storage roots that resolve to directories outside the project root. Affected versions span all active TYPO3 branches: before 10.4.57, 11.0.0-11.5.51, 12.0.0-12.4.46, 13.0.0-13.4.31, and 14.0.0-14.3.3. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog; the CVSS 4.0 score of 2.1 reflects the severe privilege and prerequisite constraints that substantially limit real-world impact.
Path traversal in awxkit's YAML !include directive exposes arbitrary local files when a user imports a crafted YAML file via the AWX CLI. Affecting Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2, the vulnerability (CWE-22) allows an unauthenticated attacker who can deliver a malicious YAML file to a victim to read arbitrary YAML-formatted files from that user's local filesystem - including potentially sensitive configuration, credential, or key material files - without any write or execution capability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; CVSS 4.7 reflects the real-world constraints of local attack vector, high complexity, and mandatory user interaction.
Path traversal in Siemens SINEC INS versions prior to V1.0 SP2 Update 6 exposes arbitrary file system locations via the SFTP directory listing endpoint. An authenticated low-privileged network attacker can send a crafted path to GET /api/sftp/uploadFiles to read files outside the intended directory scope, resulting in unauthorized disclosure of file system contents. No active exploitation or public proof-of-concept has been identified at time of analysis; the impact is limited to confidentiality with no integrity or availability consequence.
Path traversal in Apache Airflow's Samba provider exposes Samba target file systems to arbitrary write operations when GCSToSambaOperator processes GCS object names containing directory traversal sequences. Disclosed on 2026-06-09 via the oss-security mailing list by Apache committer Jarek Potiuk as a pre-NVD disclosure, the vulnerability enables any party who can influence GCS object names in the source bucket to write files outside the intended destination directory on the Samba share. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and CVSS scoring is not yet available.
Path traversal in the HarmonyOS SMS application allows unauthenticated remote attackers to impact integrity and availability on affected Huawei devices. Exploitation requires user interaction - a victim must engage with a crafted message - but no privileges or special authentication are needed from the attacker's side, lowering the barrier to reach a target. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis; this appears to be a vendor-disclosed issue patched in the June 2026 Huawei security bulletin.
Path traversal in Spring Framework's static resource resolution exposes arbitrary server files to unauthenticated remote attackers across both Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux stacks. Four major release lines - 5.3.x, 6.1.x, 6.2.x, and 7.0.x - are affected, making this a broad-surface issue for the Java ecosystem. The CVSS vector confirms unauthenticated network access with high confidentiality impact, though the AC:H designation indicates non-trivial exploit conditions; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Arbitrary file deletion in bookcars v8.3 allows unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files via directory traversal in the /api/delete-temp-license/{file} endpoint. Exploitation is simple and requires no authentication, with a proof-of-concept publicly available. EPSS score of 0.12% indicates low likelihood of widespread exploitation currently.
Path traversal in Dulwich's porcelain.format_patch function allows patch files to be written outside the intended output directory by processing commits with malicious subject lines. Any service passing untrusted commits to dulwich.porcelain.format_patch(outdir=...) - such as CI pipelines, PR review platforms, or developer tooling processing third-party repositories - is affected in versions 0.24.0 through 1.2.4. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, but the attack pattern is trivially reproducible from the advisory description alone; exploitation requires no special tooling beyond crafting a commit with a subject like 'x/../../target'.
WordPress Plugin admin-word-count-column 2.2 contains a local file read vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by exploiting null byte injection in the path. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.9), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Path traversal in hsweb-framework up to version 5.0.1 allows authenticated remote attackers to write files outside the intended upload directory by manipulating the filename argument in the file upload component. The root cause is insufficient sanitization of path sequences — including URL-encoded variants (`..%2F`) and Windows-style backslashes (`..\`) — in the `denied` function of `FileUploadProperties.java`. A public exploit has been disclosed via GitHub issue #344, and a patch commit is available; no KEV listing indicates opportunistic rather than confirmed mass exploitation.
Path traversal in jishenghua jshERP up to version 3.6 allows authenticated remote attackers to manipulate the `fileName` argument at the `addAccountHeadAndDetail` endpoint, producing limited but confirmed integrity and availability impacts (I:L/A:L). The vulnerability is in `AccountHeadService.java` within the Java ERP application, and a proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly disclosed via the project's GitHub issue tracker. The vendor had not responded to the responsible disclosure at time of reporting, and no patch is available.
Path traversal in iAI Lab PDF AI App 4.21.0 on Android allows a local low-privileged attacker to manipulate the `_display_name` argument within the `getExternalCacheDir` function of the `chatpdf.pro` component, enabling unauthorized file system access outside the intended cache directory. The CVSS 4.0 score of 1.9 reflects the strictly local attack surface and limited integrity and availability impact with no confidentiality breach. A public proof-of-concept exploit has been released; the vendor was contacted prior to disclosure and did not respond, leaving the vulnerability unpatched.
Path traversal in the Quick Playground WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 1.3.4) exposes arbitrary server files to authenticated administrators. The flaw exists in client-qckply_data.php where the qckply_data() function forwards a user-supplied filename POST parameter directly into file_get_contents() without sanitization, enabling traversal sequences to escape the webroot and reach files such as wp-config.php or /etc/passwd. No public exploit exists and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but exploitation would yield database credentials and other secrets with high confidentiality impact.
Directory traversal in the LearnPress - Backup & Migration Tool plugin for WordPress (all versions through 4.1.4) allows authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files on the underlying server by supplying path traversal sequences via the 'import-user-file' parameter. Exploitation exposes highly sensitive server-side content - including wp-config.php database credentials, private keys, or system files - despite requiring high-privilege access. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The CVSS score of 4.9 reflects the high privilege barrier (PR:H), but the C:H confidentiality impact makes successful exploitation consequential.
Directory traversal in the Smart Slider 3 WordPress plugin (all versions ≤ 3.5.1.36) exposes arbitrary server-side files to authenticated administrators via the replaceHTMLImage function in the plugin's slider export/backup subsystem. An attacker with administrator-level WordPress access can craft a request that traverses outside the intended directory and return the raw contents of sensitive files such as wp-config.php. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, and the high privilege requirement (CVSS PR:H) substantially limits the realistic attack surface to insider threats, compromised admin accounts, or privilege-escalation chains.
