CVE-2026-47682: CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in cvat-ai cvat
CVE-2026-47682 is a path traversal vulnerability in the CVAT open source annotation tool. Versions from 1.6.0 up to but not including 2.65.0 allow an attacker with write access to a configured cloud storage, or the ability to add new cloud storages, to overwrite arbitrary files on the server filesystem. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 2.65.0.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability identified as CVE-2026-47682 in CVAT (Computer Vision Annotation Tool) versions 1.6.0 through 2.64.0 is a CWE-22 path traversal flaw. It enables an attacker who has write permissions to an existing cloud storage configured in CVAT, or who can add new cloud storages, to overwrite arbitrary files on the server hosting CVAT. This could lead to unauthorized modification of files and potentially compromise the server. The issue is resolved in CVAT version 2.65.0.
Potential Impact
An attacker with limited privileges (write access to cloud storage or ability to add cloud storages) can overwrite arbitrary files on the CVAT server filesystem. This could lead to data loss, service disruption, or further compromise of the server environment. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 7.1 (high severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no user interaction, and high impact on integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade CVAT to version 2.65.0 or later, where this path traversal vulnerability has been fixed. Until the upgrade, restrict write access to cloud storages and limit the ability to add new cloud storages to trusted users only.
