Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 does not properly validate the username field, allowing attackers to inject path traversal sequences and bypass containment checks. This enables multiple severe impacts, including arbitrary directory deletion, cross-tenant data destruction, and JWT signing key deletion leading to session invalidation.Show less

Jenkins 2.575 and earlier, LTS 2.568.1 and earlier improperly identifies file paths attempting path traversal in file parameter names, allowing attackers with Item/Configure and Item/Build permission to write files to arbitrary locations on the controller file system.Show less

IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.10.3 allows users to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem, including other users' uploaded documents, the JWT signing secret, the SQLite database, and process environment variables, by sending a crafted MCP `resources/read` request with a URL-encoded path traversal sequence in the filename.Show less

A cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Query Console of Progress MarkLogic Server before 11.3.6 and 12.0.3 allows a remote attacker who lures an authenticated administrator to a crafted URL to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the administrator's browser session, capture credentials, and perform privileged actions on the administrator's behalf.Show less

The Content Egg – Affiliate Product Importer & Price Comparison plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion via Path Traversal in versions up to and including 11.3.0. This is due to insufficient validation of the 'img_file' field within the cegg_data post metadata: the value passes only through wp_strip_all_tags() (which does not strip path traversal sequences), is stored directly in post meta, and is later concatenated without normalization into a filesystem path in getFullImgPath() before being passed to PHP's unlink(). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.Show less

Fledge's backup-restore upload handler, upload_backup (python/fledge/services/core/api/backup_restore.py), calls tarfile.extractall(temp_path) on an admin-uploaded tar archive with no filter argument and no per-member path validation. Requires the admin role (@has_permission("admin")).Show less

Zigbee2MQTT's ExternalJSExtension.getFilePath (lib/extension/externalJS.ts) joins a parameter received via an MQTT message (topic zigbee2mqtt/bridge/request/extension/save) into the extensions base path using path.join(basePath, name) with no sanitization. The extension handler only validates that the name ends in .js/.mjs/.cjs, writes the file, and then dynamically imports it via Node.js import, achieving remote code execution.Show less

OpenPLC Runtime v3's compile_program function (webserver/openplc.py) parses directives from uploaded Structured Text (.st) program files and writes the referenced content to with no validation that file_path stays within the ./core directory. A path-validation function, validate_file_path, exists elsewhere in the codebase (webserver/credentials.py) but is never invoked from compile_program, leaving the sink unprotected.Show less

In Eclipse Theia versions up to and including 1.73.1, the `@theia/filesystem` backend exposes HTTP file-download endpoints (`GET /file`, `GET /files/`, `PUT /files/`) that convert a client-supplied URI directly to a filesystem path and stream the file, without confining it to the workspace or any allow-listed root. In browser (non-Electron) deployments the connection token is enforced only on WebSocket upgrades; the HTTP middleware in `@theia/core` re-issues the cookie and calls `next()` without rejecting tokenless HTTP requests, so these endpoints are reachable without a valid token. As a result an unauthenticated client can read any file readable by the backend process, including files outside the opened workspace (for example `/etc/hosts`, SSH keys, or tokens). Electron mode uses a separate `ElectronSecurityToken` and is not affected via this path.Show less

In Eclipse Mojarra versions 2.3 and following, URL handing in `DefaultFaceletFactory` does not properly sanitize and/or block remote URLs, allowing an attacker to specify a URL to a remote Facelet which will be included and processed as part of the normal request, with the privileges of the target server. This could allow access to restricted files such as `WEB-INF/web.xml` or `/etc/passwd`.Show less

In Eclipse Theia versions up to and including 1.73.1, the `@theia/filesystem` backend binds `POST /file-upload` in every filesystem-enabled deployment. The handler takes an attacker-supplied absolute path from the multipart `uri` field and calls `fs.move(tmp, target, { overwrite: true })` with no workspace confinement and no authentication. In browser (non-Electron) deployments the connection token is enforced only on WebSocket upgrades; the HTTP middleware in `@theia/core` re-issues the cookie and calls `next()` without rejecting tokenless HTTP requests. Because `multipart/form-data` is a CORS-safelisted request type, a cross-origin web page can trigger the write with no preflight and no credentials, resulting in an unauthenticated arbitrary file write outside the workspace to any absolute path the backend process can write. This can escalate to remote code execution, for example by overwriting a startup-executed file such as `~/.bashrc`. Electron mode uses a separate `ElectronSecurityToken` and is not affected via this path.Show less

In Eclipse Theia versions 1.66.0 and up until including 1.73.1, the `@theia/plugin-ext` backend exposes the `/hostedPlugin/:pluginId/:path(*)` HTTP endpoint, which resolves the requested file path with `path.resolve(localPath, filePath)` without verifying that the resolved path stays within the plugin's directory. An unauthenticated network attacker can send percent-encoded `../` sequences (`%2e%2e%2f`) that decode into the path parameter and escape the plugin directory, allowing arbitrary files readable by the Theia backend process to be retrieved. Plugin IDs are derived deterministically from a plugin's publisher and name, so built-in plugins serve as reliable anchors that require no prior knowledge of the target system.Show less

art-template's sub-template resolution logic (src/compile/adapter/resolve-filename.js), used by both the include and extend template directives, resolves the target file path via path.resolve(root, filename) with no check afterward that the result remains inside root.Show less

audiobookshelf's authentication-exemption check (server/routers/Auth.js) matches unauthenticated-allowed GET routes against req.path via a regex requiring a literal /items/:id/cover or /authors/:id/image shape, where req.path retains %2F sequences URL-encoded. CacheManager.handleCoverCache then joins this decoded value into a cache file path and streams the result before any database-backed ownership check.Show less

The pocketflow-coding-agent cookbook example in The-Pocket/PocketFlow implements a helper as a thin os.path.join(workdir, p) wrapper with no canonicalization or containment check, used unguarded by the ReadFile, ListFiles, PatchRead, and PatchApply file-access tools. Severity reflects that this affects an illustrative cookbook example rather than a core library API; applications that copy this pattern into production are affected.Show less

The Custom Fields WordPress plugin before 1.5.1 does not validate a user-supplied file path before deletion, allowing unauthenticated users to delete arbitrary files on the server (such as wp-config.php), which can lead to a full site takeover.Show less

Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From 0.10.0 until 6.54.1, a vulnerability in custom themes allowed a staff user to write files outside of the uploads directory. This could be used to alter the behavior of the installation through custom theme upload path traversal in LocalStorageBase and theme storage name handling. This issue is fixed in version 6.54.1.Show less

Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From 1.20.1 until 6.54.1, an Administrator-level user could remotely overwrite certain files on the filesystem through the database backup filename, leading to integrity and availability issues. The database export endpoint failed to reject path separators in the caller-supplied filename. This issue is fixed in version 6.54.1.Show less
