A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco SD-WAN vManage Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct path traversal attacks and obtain write access to sensitive files on an affected system. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of HTTP requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request that contains directory traversal character sequences to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to write arbitrary files on the affected system.

The Brizy – Page Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.39 via the 'id'. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to upload files to arbitrary locations on the server

Multiple relative path traversal vulnerabilities [CWE-23] in Fortinet FortiSOAR before 7.2.1 allows an authenticated attacker to write to the underlying filesystem with nginx permissions via crafted HTTP requests.

Jenkins Pipeline: Phoenix AutoTest Plugin 1.3 and earlier allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to upload arbitrary files from the Jenkins controller via FTP to an attacker-specified FTP server.

Kedro-Datasets is a Kendo plugin providing data connectors. Prior to 9.3.0, PartitionedDataset in kedro-datasets was vulnerable to path traversal. Partition IDs were concatenated directly with the dataset base path without validation. An attacker or malicious input containing .. components in a partition ID could cause files to be written outside the configured dataset directory, potentially overwriting arbitrary files on the filesystem. Users of PartitionedDataset with any storage backend (local filesystem, S3, GCS, etc.) are affected. This vulnerability is fixed in 9.3.0.

A vulnerability in the directory permissions of Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform a directory traversal attack on a limited set of restricted directories. The vulnerability is due to a flaw in the logic that governs directory permissions. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using capabilities that are not controlled by the role-based access control (RBAC) mechanisms of the software. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite files on an affected device.

NATS nats-server before 2.7.4 allows Directory Traversal (with write access) via an element in a ZIP archive for JetStream streams. nats-streaming-server before 0.24.3 is also affected.

Halloy is an IRC application written in Rust. Prior to commit 0f77b2cfc5f822517a256ea5a4b94bad8bfe38b6, the DCC receive flow did not sanitize filenames from incoming `DCC SEND` requests. A remote IRC user could send a filename with path traversal sequences like `../../.ssh/authorized_keys` and the file would be written outside the user's configured `save_directory`. With auto-accept enabled this required zero interaction from the victim. Starting with commit 0f77b2cfc5f822517a256ea5a4b94bad8bfe38b6, all identified code paths sanitize filenames through a shared `sanitize_filename` function.

File Browser is a file managing interface for uploading, deleting, previewing, renaming, and editing files within a specified directory. Versions 2.61.2 and below are vulnerable to Path Traversal through the resourcePatchHandler (http/resource.go). The destination path in resourcePatchHandler is validated against access rules before being cleaned/normalized, while the actual file operation calls path.Clean() afterward—resolving .. sequences into a different effective path. This allows an authenticated user with Create or Rename permissions to bypass administrator-configured deny rules (both prefix-based and regex-based) by injecting .. sequences in the destination parameter of a PATCH request. As a result, the user can write or move files into any deny-rule-protected path within their scope. However, this cannot be used to escape the user's BasePathFs scope or read from restricted paths. This issue has been fixed in version 2.62.0.

Actual Sync Server allows authenticated users to upload files through POST /sync/upload-user-file. In versions prior to 26.3.0, improper validation of the user-controlled x-actual-file-id header means that traversal segments (../) can escape the intended directory and write files outside userFiles.This issue affects prior versions of Actual Sync Server 26.3.0.

ssr-pages is an HTML page builder for the purpose of server-side rendering (SSR). In versions prior to 0.1.4, a path traversal issue can occur when providing untrusted input to the `svg` property as an argument to the `build(MessagePageOptions)` function. While there is no known workaround at this time, there is a patch in version 0.1.4.

CoreFTP Server before 727 allows directory traversal (for file creation) by an authenticated attacker via ../ in an HTTP PUT request.

In mprivacy-tools before 2.0.406g in m-privacy TightGate-Pro Server, a Directory Traversal in the print function of the VNC service allows authenticated attackers (with access to a VNC session) to automatically transfer malicious PDF documents by moving them into the .spool directory, and then sending a signal to the VNC service, which automatically transfers them to the connected VNC client's filesystem.

An authenticated path traversal vulnerability exists during package installation in Umbraco CMS <= 8.9.1 or current, which could result in arbitrary files being written outside of the site home and expected paths when installing an Umbraco package.

APOC (Awesome Procedures on Cypher) is an add-on library for Neo4j that provides hundreds of procedures and functions. A path traversal vulnerability found in the apoc.export.* procedures of apoc plugins in Neo4j Graph database. The issue allows a malicious actor to potentially break out of the expected directory. The vulnerability is such that files could only be created but not overwritten. For the vulnerability to be exploited, an attacker would need access to execute an arbitrary query, either by having access to an authenticated Neo4j client, or a Cypher injection vulnerability in an application. The minimum versions containing patch for this vulnerability are 4.4.0.12 and 4.3.0.12 and 5.3.1. As a workaround, you can control the allowlist of the procedures that can be used in your system, and/or turn off local file access by setting apoc.export.file.enabled=false.

A directory traversal vulnerability in the component system/manager/class/web/database.php was discovered in Baijiacms V4 which allows attackers to arbitrarily delete folders on the server via the "id" parameter.

Jenkins Storable Configs Plugin 1.0 and earlier does not restrict the user-specified file name, allowing attackers with Job/Configure permission to replace any other '.xml' file on the Jenkins controller with a job config.xml file's content.

This High severity Path Traversal (Arbitrary Write) vulnerability was introduced in versions: 9.12.0, 10.3.0 and remain present in 11.0.0 of Jira Software Data Center and Server. This Path Traversal (Arbitrary Write) vulnerability, with a CVSS Score of 8.7, allows an attacker to modify any filesystem path writable by the Jira JVM process. Atlassian recommends that Jira Software Data Center and Server customers upgrade to the latest version; if you are unable to do so, upgrade your instance to one of the specified supported fixed versions: Jira Software Data Center and Server 9.12: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 9.12.28 Jira Software Data Center and Server 10.3: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 10.3.12 Jira Software Data Center and Server 11.0: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 11.1.0 See the release notes.

An arbitrary file write vulnerability in Jenkins Cobertura Plugin 1.15 and earlier allows attackers able to control the coverage report file contents to overwrite any file on the Jenkins master file system.

A vulnerability in the application data endpoints of Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager, formerly Cisco SD-WAN vManage, could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files to an affected system. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of requests to APIs. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious requests to an API within the affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to conduct directory traversal attacks and write files to an arbitrary location on the affected system.

The Eleganzo theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary directory deletion due to insufficient path validation in the akd_required_plugin_callback function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary directories on the server, including the WordPress root directory.

Blinko is an AI-powered card note-taking project. Prior to version 1.8.4, there is an authenticated arbitrary file write vulnerability in saveAdditionalDevFile. This issue has been patched in version 1.8.4.

Blinko is an AI-powered card note-taking project. In versions from 1.8.3 and prior, the fileName parameter is not filtered, allowing path traversal to write files anywhere on the file system. Moreover, this interface only requires authProcedure (normal user), not superAdminAuthMiddleware. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

Zoho ManageEngine Desktop Central before 10.0.484 allows authenticated arbitrary file writes during ZIP archive extraction via Directory Traversal in a crafted AppDependency API request.

Flatpak is a Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework. A path traversal vulnerability affects versions of Flatpak prior to 1.12.3 and 1.10.6. flatpak-builder applies `finish-args` last in the build. At this point the build directory will have the full access that is specified in the manifest, so running `flatpak build` against it will gain those permissions. Normally this will not be done, so this is not problem. However, if `--mirror-screenshots-url` is specified, then flatpak-builder will launch `flatpak build --nofilesystem=host appstream-utils mirror-screenshots` after finalization, which can lead to issues even with the `--nofilesystem=host` protection. In normal use, the only issue is that these empty directories can be created wherever the user has write permissions. However, a malicious application could replace the `appstream-util` binary and potentially do something more hostile. This has been resolved in Flatpak 1.12.3 and 1.10.6 by changing the behaviour of `--nofilesystem=home` and `--nofilesystem=host`.

Dagu is a workflow engine with a built-in Web user interface. In versions up to and including 1.16.7, the `CreateNewDAG` API endpoint (`POST /api/v1/dags`) does not validate the DAG name before passing it to the file store. An authenticated user with DAG write permissions can write arbitrary YAML files anywhere on the filesystem (limited by the process permissions). Since dagu executes DAG files as shell commands, writing a malicious DAG to the DAGs directory of another instance or overwriting config files can lead to remote code execution. Commit e2ed589105d79273e4e6ac8eb31525f765bb3ce4 fixes the issue.

Stirling-PDF is a locally hosted web application that performs various operations on PDF files. In versions prior to 2.5.2, the /api/v1/convert/markdown/pdf endpoint extracts user-supplied ZIP entries without path checks. Any authenticated user can write files outside the intended temporary working directory, leading to arbitrary file write with the privileges of the Stirling-PDF process user (stirlingpdfuser). This can overwrite writable files and compromise data integrity, with further impact depending on writable paths. The issue was fixed in version 2.5.2.

OpenEMR is a free and open source electronic health records and medical practice management application. Prior to 8.0.0.2, the DICOM zip/export feature uses a user-supplied destination or path component when creating the zip file, without sanitizing path traversal sequences (e.g. `../`). An attacker with DICOM upload/export permission can write files outside the intended directory, potentially under the web root, leading to arbitrary file write and possibly remote code execution if PHP or other executable files can be written. Version 8.0.0.2 fixes the issue.

WordPress through 5.0.3 allows Path Traversal in wp_crop_image(). An attacker (who has privileges to crop an image) can write the output image to an arbitrary directory via a filename containing two image extensions and ../ sequences, such as a filename ending with the .jpg?/../../file.jpg substring.

A vulnerability in the application data endpoints of Cisco SD-WAN vManage Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files to an affected system. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of requests to APIs. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious requests to an API within the affected application. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to conduct directory traversal attacks and write files to an arbitrary location on the targeted system.

Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. Prior to version 2.0.74, due to a Bash command validation flaw in parsing ZSH clobber syntax, it was possible to bypass directory restrictions and write files outside the current working directory without user permission prompts. Exploiting this required the user to use ZSH and the ability to add untrusted content into a Claude Code context window. This issue has been patched in version 2.0.74.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Cybozu Office 10.0.0 to 10.8.3 allows remote authenticated attackers to alter arbitrary files via the 'Customapp' function.

Versions of the Traccar open-source GPS tracking system up to and including 6.11.1 contain an issue in which authenticated users who can create or edit devices can set a device `uniqueId` to an absolute path. When uploading a device image, Traccar uses that `uniqueId` to build the filesystem path without enforcing that the resolved path stays under the media root. This allows writing files outside the media directory. As of time of publication, it is unclear whether a fix is available.

IBM OpenPages with Watson 8.3 and 9.0 IBM OpenPages could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system. An attacker with privileges to perform Import Configuration could send a specially crafted http request containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) in the file name parameter used in Import Configuration to write files to arbitrary locations outside of the specified directory and possibly overwrite arbitrary files.

E-cology has a directory traversal vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to delete the server directory, causing the server to permanently deny service.

A Directory Traversal vulnerability exists in FusionPBX 4.5.7 allows malicoius users to rename any file of the system.via the (1) folder, (2) filename, and (3) newfilename variables in app\edit\filerename.php.

An issue was discovered in Vaultize 21.07.27. When uploading files, there is no check that the filename parameter is correct. As a result, a temporary file will be created outside the specified directory when the file is downloaded. To exploit this, an authenticated user would upload a file with an incorrect file name, and then download it.

Oceanic is a NodeJS library for interfacing with Discord. Prior to version 1.10.4, input to functions such as `Client.rest.channels.removeBan` is not url-encoded, resulting in specially crafted input such as `../../../channels/{id}` being normalized into the url `/api/v10/channels/{id}`, and deleting a channel rather than removing a ban. Version 1.10.4 fixes this issue. Some workarounds are available. One may sanitize user input, ensuring strings are valid for the purpose they are being used for. One may also encode input with `encodeURIComponent` before providing it to the library.

A directory traversal (Zip Slip) vulnerability exists in the “Static Sites” feature of 66biolinks v44.0.0 by AltumCode. Uploaded ZIP archives are automatically extracted without validating or sanitizing file paths. An attacker can include traversal sequences (e.g., ../) in ZIP entries to write files outside the intended extraction directory. This allows static files (html, js, css, images) file write to unintended locations, or overwriting existing HTML files, potentially leading to content defacement and, in certain deployments, further impact if sensitive files are overwritten.

XMLLanguageService.java in XML Language Server (aka lsp4xml) before 0.9.1, as used in Red Hat XML Language Support (aka vscode-xml) before 0.9.1 for Visual Studio and other products, allows a remote attacker to write to arbitrary files via Directory Traversal.

A path traversal vulnerability in Jenkins Support Core Plugin 2.63 and earlier allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to delete arbitrary files on the Jenkins master.

An issue was discovered in OKLite v1.2.25. framework/admin/tpl_control.php allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via a title directory-traversal pathname followed by a crafted substring.

In FusionPBX up to v4.5.7, the file app\xml_cdr\xml_cdr_delete.php uses an unsanitized "rec" variable coming from the URL, which is base64 decoded and allows deletion of any file of the system.

IBM App Connect enterprise 12.0.1.0 through 12.0.12.10 and 13.0.1.0 through 13.0.2.1 could allow an authenticated user to write to an arbitrary file on the system during bar configuration deployment due to improper pathname limitations on restricted directories.

Koji through 1.18.0 allows remote Directory Traversal, with resultant Privilege Escalation.

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Session Management Edition (Unified CM SME) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to delete arbitrary files from an affected system. This vulnerability exists because the affected software does not properly validate HTTP requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to the affected software. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to delete arbitrary files from the affected system.

Improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory ('path traversal') in OneDrive for Android allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

Arbitrary file write as the OSV-SCALIBR user on the host system via a path traversal vulnerability when using OSV-SCALIBR's unpack() function for container images. Particularly, when using the CLI flag --remote-image on untrusted container images.

Versions of the npm CLI prior to 6.13.4 are vulnerable to an Arbitrary File Overwrite. It fails to prevent existing globally-installed binaries to be overwritten by other package installations. For example, if a package was installed globally and created a serve binary, any subsequent installs of packages that also create a serve binary would overwrite the previous serve binary. This behavior is still allowed in local installations and also through install scripts. This vulnerability bypasses a user using the --ignore-scripts install option.

Umbraco is an ASP.NET content management system (CMS). Starting in version 8.0.0 and prior to versions 8.18.10, 10.8.1, and 12.3.0, Backoffice users with permissions to create packages can use path traversal and thereby write outside of the expected location. Versions 8.18.10, 10.8.1, and 12.3.0 contain a patch for this issue.
