OpenHarness before commit bd4df81 contains a permission bypass vulnerability that allows attackers to read sensitive files by exploiting incomplete path normalization in the permission checker. Attackers can invoke the built-in grep and glob tools with sensitive root directories that are not properly evaluated against configured path rules, allowing disclosure of sensitive local file content, key material, configuration files, or directory contents despite configured path restrictions.

Vibe-Trading before 0.1.10 constructs the swarm run directory by joining a caller-supplied run identifier onto the runs base directory without validation in run_dir (agent/src/swarm/store.py). A crafted run identifier supplied through the MCP swarm tools causes the application to read arbitrary run.json files outside the runs directory and to overwrite existing run.json files at traversed locations.

Vibe-Trading before 0.1.10 builds the proposal file path by joining a caller-supplied proposal identifier onto the broker proposals directory without sanitization (agent/src/live/mandate/commit.py). A proposal identifier containing path traversal sequences causes the application to load an attacker-controlled JSON file as an authoritative live trading mandate. Combined with the file upload endpoint, an admitted caller can write a JSON file to a known location and traverse to it, and because the ceilings validation is skipped when ceilings are absent, the attacker fully controls the committed mandate.

Vibe-Trading before 0.1.10 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers to write files outside the intended memory root directory by supplying a malicious memory_type value containing path traversal sequences through the remember tool. Attackers can manipulate the memory_type parameter in the persistent memory store to cause the application to write arbitrary Markdown files to unintended locations on the filesystem.

OpenHarness prior to commit dd1d235 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows remote gateway users with chat access to read arbitrary files by supplying path traversal sequences to the /memory show slash command. Attackers can manipulate the path input parameter to escape the project memory directory and access sensitive files accessible to the OpenHarness process without filesystem containment validation.

nanobot is a personal AI assistant. In versions 0.1.5.post3 and prior, the WhatsApp bridge in bridge/src/whatsapp.ts constructs a filesystem path using the fileName field from an incoming WhatsApp document message without sanitization. The WhatsApp bridge downloads media attachments and writes them to disk using a filename derived from the sender's message via documentMessage.fileName, which is concatenated with a prefix and its raw value is passed directly to path.join(mediaDir, outFilename). Node.js path.join resolves .. components, allowing an attacker to escape the intended media/ directory by sending a document with a crafted fileName such as ../../../.ssh/authorized_keys. Because the attacker also controls the file content (the downloaded buffer), this is a write-anywhere primitive — both path and content are attacker-controlled. A fix for this issue is planned for version 0.1.5.post4.

A vulnerability was found in HKUDS LightRAG up to 1.3.8. It has been declared as critical.

An unauthenticated directory traversal vulnerability in cgi-bin/upload.cgi in SNMP Web Pro 1.1 allows a remote attacker to read arbitrary files. The CGI concatenates the user-supplied params directly onto the base path (/var/www/files/userScript/) using memcpy + strcat without validation or canonicalization, enabling ../ sequences to escape the intended directory. The download branch also echoes the unsanitized params into Content-Disposition, introducing header-injection risk.

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 download_backup_file parameters in tools.php. Attackers can exploit insufficient input validation using directory traversal techniques to access wp-config.php, database dumps, and other sensitive files, or delete critical files .htaccess to expose backup directories.

NLTK (Natural Language Toolkit) is a suite of open source Python modules, data sets, and tutorials supporting research and development in Natural Language Processing. Prior to 3.10.0-rc1, nltk.data.load() in NLTK is vulnerable to path traversal via URL-encoded path separators and traversal segments when using the nltk: URL scheme. The unsafe-path regex check is performed before url2pathname() decodes the %xx sequences (a classic decode-after-check / TOCTOU-style flaw), allowing an attacker to bypass the protection documented in NLTK's SECURITY.md and read arbitrary files from the filesystem. While literal traversal strings such as ../../../etc/passwd are correctly blocked, encoded variants such as %2fetc%2fpasswd, %2e%2e%2f..., and ..%2f..%2f slip past the regex and are subsequently decoded into a real filesystem path. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.10.0-rc1.
