Description

CVE-2026-37007 is a critical vulnerability in the FileWriterTool component of crewai-tools versions up to 1.10.2rc1. It allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging malicious path traversal sequences in the filename argument. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of file paths, classified under CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory). The CVSS score is 9.8, indicating a high severity with network attack vector, no privileges or user interaction required, and full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No patch or remediation information is currently provided, and no known exploits are reported in the wild. The affected versions are not explicitly stated beyond "<= 1.10.2rc1."

Technical Analysis

The vulnerability in FileWriterTool in crewai-tools (versions up to 1.10.2rc1) allows remote code execution through malicious path traversal in the filename argument. This flaw enables an attacker to manipulate file paths to write or execute unauthorized code remotely. The issue is categorized as CWE-22, indicating improper restriction of file pathnames. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8, reflecting critical impact with network attack vector, no required privileges or user interaction, and full impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No official patch or remediation details are available in the provided data, and no active exploitation has been reported.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected system without authentication or user interaction. This can lead to full system compromise, including unauthorized access, data modification, and service disruption. The critical CVSS score (9.8) reflects the severity of the impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should consider restricting access to the vulnerable component and monitor for suspicious activity related to file path manipulation. Avoid exposing the FileWriterTool interface to untrusted networks or users.
