CVE-2026-10621: CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in Collibra Collibra Platform (SaaS)
Path traversal in restore handler in Collibra Agent, allows an attacker to write arbitrary files via a crafted ZIP archive. Collibra Agent fails to properly validate and canonicalize file path during ZIP extraction, this can allow an attacker to write files outside the intended extraction directory.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory (CWE-22) in the Collibra Agent's restore handler. When processing a crafted ZIP archive, the agent fails to properly validate and canonicalize file paths, enabling an attacker to write files outside the intended extraction directory. This could lead to unauthorized file creation or modification on the system where the agent runs. The affected product is Collibra Platform (SaaS), version 2025.10. No patch or official remediation guidance has been provided yet.
Potential Impact
An attacker exploiting this vulnerability can write arbitrary files to locations outside the intended extraction directory, potentially leading to unauthorized file modification or system compromise depending on the context in which the Collibra Agent operates. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory at https://kb.cert.org/vuls/id/873170 for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the Collibra Agent and carefully control the sources of ZIP archives used in restore operations to reduce risk.
