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

LaraDashboard before 1.4.8 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read JSON files by manipulating the {lang} route segment. On Windows hosts, attackers can send URL-encoded backslash sequences like ..%5C to escape resources/lang and read composer.json or other application JSON files.Show less

A vulnerability has been found in Linux Mint Xreader up to 4.6.9. Impacted is the function g_file_get_child of the file shell/ev-window.c of the component PDF Attachment Saving Handler. Such manipulation of the argument attachment leads to path traversal. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. One of the project maintainers closed this issue as "completed", because "EPUB support was removed from Xreader and reimplemented in Xepub". Code analysis indicates that this might be a misunderstanding of the situation.Show less

A flaw has been found in Linux Mint Xreader up to 4.6.5. This issue affects the function setup_document_content_list/g_strdup_printf of the file backend/epub/epub-document.c of the component EPUB File Handler. This manipulation causes path traversal. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. Upgrading to version 4.6.6 is capable of addressing this issue. Patch name: a5aecea074e8564b7a22f1ce054b31ec862974b7. It is advisable to upgrade the affected component. One of the project maintainers explains, that "EPUB support was removed from Xreader and reimplemented in Xepub".Show less

The VikAppointments Services Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the extract function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.21. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). Exploitation requires at least one File-type custom field to be published on the confirmation page shortcode, as this field is not created by default during plugin installation.Show less

The Loco Translate WordPress plugin before 2.8.9 does not restrict which file paths its translation file routes will read, allowing users granted the Loco Translate WordPress plugin before 2.8.9's translator capability to retrieve the contents of files of certain types from anywhere on the server, including outside the web root.Show less

The Unlimited Elements for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.0.21 does not sanitise file paths inside uploaded archives before extracting them, allowing authenticated users with access to its asset-management feature (Administrators by default, or Editors when a non-default Unlimited Elements for Elementor WordPress plugin before 2.0.21 setting is enabled) to write arbitrary files, including executable PHP, outside the intended upload directory on servers where the PHP zip extension is unavailable, leading to Remote Code Execution.Show less

The MPG WordPress plugin before 4.2.3 does not validate that the dataset source supplied when importing a project is a remote URL before treating it as a local filesystem path and copying that file into a publicly accessible uploads folder. This makes it possible for users with the Editor role and above to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, with the copied file then retrievable by unauthenticated visitors.Show less

Formwork before 2.3.13 contains a path traversal vulnerability in BackupController that allows authenticated panel users to read or delete arbitrary files. Attackers with backup download or delete permission can supply a base64-encoded backslash-separated traversal payload that bypasses PHP basename on Linux to access files outside the backup directory.Show less

The Angular SSR is a server-rise rendering tool for Angular applications. Prior to versions 20.3.36, 21.2.23, and 22.1.7, the CommonEngine retrieveSSGPage prerendered-page retrieval logic in @angular/ssr/node, and in @angular/ssr for versions 17 through 18, accepts a relative request URL containing a backslash parent-traversal segment on Windows. The non-special resolve:// URL base preserves the backslash, path.join interprets it as a Windows separator, and the pagePath.startsWith(normalize(publicPath)) check incorrectly accepts a sibling output directory whose name shares the configured public-directory prefix. An unauthenticated requester can therefore retrieve a sibling prerendered HTML page when that page contains the Angular SSG marker. The issue is limited to Windows deployments that pass relative request URLs to CommonEngine.render, have a prefix-sharing sibling output directory, and contain qualifying prerendered Angular HTML; it does not provide arbitrary file read. This issue is fixed in versions 20.3.36, 21.2.23, and 22.1.7.Show less

CodeArt Google MP3 Audio Player plugin (google-mp3-audio-player) for WordPress through 1.0.11 contains an unauthenticated arbitrary file read vulnerability that allows remote attackers to retrieve sensitive files by supplying a path-traversal payload in the file parameter of direct_download.php. Attackers can request paths ../../wp-config.php without authentication to download configuration files containing database credentials and secret keys, leading to full site compromise. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2023-10-19.Show less

Nx is a monorepo solution for TypeScript and polyglot codebases. From 13.10.0 until 22.7.10 and 23.2.1, Nx migration planning reads the nx-migrations.migrations value from a target package manifest without validating that it is a contained relative path. A hostile direct dependency or a package introduced through a trusted package's packageGroup can supply .. segments or an absolute path, causing nx migrate to join an escaping destination onto its temporary directory. The migration archive can then write attacker-controlled bytes outside the temporary directory, while opening the destination stream can truncate an existing writable file even when no archive entry matches. This occurs during migration planning before review of the migration list or use of --run-migrations; the vulnerable installed Nx copy is reached when the normal nx@latest handoff is bypassed with NX_USE_LOCAL, NX_MIGRATE_USE_LOCAL, NX_MIGRATE_CLI_VERSION, --run-id, or fallback after a temporary-install failure. This issue is fixed in versions 22.7.10 and 23.2.1.Show less

In TaskingAI v0.3.0 in the QR Code Generator plugin save_base64_image function, a path traversal vulnerability allows attackers to write image files to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem by manipulating the project_id parameter.Show less

In TaskingAI v0.3.0 in the DALL-E 3 image generation tool save_url_image function, a path traversal vulnerability allows attackers to write downloaded images to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem by manipulating the project_id parameter.Show less

uv is a Python package and project manager written in Rust. From 0.12.7 until 0.12.18, uv wheel extraction on Windows can process a malicious wheel in a way that writes a file outside the installation prefix, including an executable in a directory already present on the user's PATH. Non-Windows hosts are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 0.12.18.Show less

Path-traversal vulnerability in QOS.CH Sarl Logback-classic on Java (logback-classic module) allows path-traversal vulnerability. More specifically, an MDC-based discriminator value flows unsanitized into a nested FileAppender path, letting an attacker who influences that MDC value (e.g. via an HTTP header) create and append log files outside the intended directory. This issue affects Logback-classic: from 0.9.14 through 1.6.4.  This vulnerability is similar to CVE-2026-19880 but involves other attack techniques.Show less

Ghost from 6.10.3 before 6.64.0 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows authenticated administrators to run code by abusing theme translation file loading. Attackers with administrator access can upload a crafted theme containing malicious translation files to execute arbitrary code on the Ghost server.Show less

Ghost from 1.20.0 before 6.64.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in theme translation file loading that allows authenticated administrators to read JSON files outside the active theme directory. Attackers can manipulate the locale setting to load JSON files elsewhere on the server, exposing server configuration secrets.Show less

Office-PowerPoint-MCP-Server through 2.0.7 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows MCP callers to write and read files outside the working directory by supplying absolute paths or ../ sequences. Attackers can steer an AI agent via prompt injection to abuse save_presentation, open_presentation, or manage_image output_path to overwrite any server-writable file or load external files.Show less

langflow-ai langflow v1.8.4 is affected by: Directory Traversal. The impact is: Arbitrary file write outside the intended workspace or storage boundary.. The component is: src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/knowledge_bases.py:knowledge_bases-create_knowledge_base-a-live-http-post-to-create-knowledge-base. The attack vector is: Attack surface: HTTP or browser-backed service path. A public-facing upload or HTTP route handler forwards an attacker-controlled path or filename into host file creation without any visible boundary enforcement. ¶¶ A weakness has been identified in langflow-ai langflow up to 1.8.4. langflow contains an absolute path traversal vulnerability in knowledge_bases-create_knowledge_base-a-live-http-post-to-create-knowledge-base (src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/knowledge_bases.py:51). An attacker can write or overwrite files outside the intended working directory by providing absolute paths in the knowledge base creation endpoint.Show less
