CVE-2026-58173: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in HKUDS Vibe-Trading
Vibe-Trading before 0.1.10 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers to write files outside the intended memory root directory by supplying a malicious memory_type value containing path traversal sequences through the remember tool. Attackers can manipulate the memory_type parameter in the persistent memory store to cause the application to write arbitrary Markdown files to unintended locations on the filesystem.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-58173 is a path traversal vulnerability in HKUDS Vibe-Trading before version 0.1.10. The issue arises because the application improperly limits the pathname to a restricted directory when handling the memory_type parameter in the remember tool. Attackers with limited privileges can supply malicious path traversal sequences to cause the application to write arbitrary Markdown files outside the intended memory root directory, potentially overwriting or injecting files in unintended filesystem locations.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows an attacker with limited privileges to write arbitrary files outside the designated directory, impacting the integrity of the system by enabling unauthorized file creation or modification. There is no direct impact on confidentiality or availability according to the CVSS vector and description.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation level is currently confirmed. Users should upgrade to version 0.1.10 or later once available. Until then, restrict access to the remember tool and validate or sanitize inputs to the memory_type parameter to prevent path traversal sequences. Monitor vendor advisories for official fixes.
