CVE-2026-26396: n/a
OpenBMB XAgent v1.0.0 and before is vulnerable to path traversal in the file() function in XAgent/XAgentServer/application/routers/workspace.py. The input parameter “filename” is user-controllable and is concatenated into the file path to be read without proper validation, leading to a directory traversal vulnerability that may result in sensitive information disclosure.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-26396 describes a directory traversal vulnerability in OpenBMB XAgent v1.0.0 and earlier. The issue is in the file() function where the 'filename' input parameter is not properly sanitized before being used to construct a file path. This allows an attacker to traverse directories and read arbitrary files, potentially exposing sensitive data. There is no CVSS score or vendor advisory available, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows an attacker to read arbitrary files on the affected system by manipulating the 'filename' parameter. This can lead to sensitive information disclosure, which may compromise confidentiality depending on the files accessed.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the vulnerable function and validate or sanitize user inputs to prevent directory traversal attempts.
