CVE-2026-35025 HIGH This Week

Directory ACL bypass in ProFTPD (through 1.3.9b and 1.3.10rc2) lets authenticated FTP users reach files inside DenyAll-protected directories by prefixing paths with /proc/self/root in the RNFR (rename-from) command. Because the CVSS 4.0 vector specifies PR:L, exploitation requires a valid low-privilege FTP account, after which an attacker can rename and then retrieve files that configured Directory ACLs were meant to protect. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no KEV listing, but the VulnCheck-assessed CVSS of 8.6 reflects the strong confidentiality and integrity impact on file-access controls.
