CVE-2026-65687: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in Bold Reports (By SyncFusion) Standalone Report Designer
Bold Reports Standalone Report Designer before 14.1.12 contains a missing filepath validation vulnerability in its SVG processing feature that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem by supplying a crafted request. Attackers can exploit this path traversal weakness to disclose sensitive server files, including authentication credentials, enabling full unauthorized access to the application. The vulnerability is specific to the DataHub module, which was introduced in Bold Reports 6.3. Therefore, versions prior to 6.3 are not affected.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-65687 is a critical path traversal vulnerability affecting Bold Reports Standalone Report Designer in versions >=6.3 and <14.1.12. The flaw exists due to missing filepath validation in the SVG processing feature within the DataHub module, enabling unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem. This can disclose sensitive information such as authentication credentials, which may allow attackers to gain full unauthorized access to the application. The vulnerability is specific to the DataHub module introduced in version 6.3, so earlier versions are not vulnerable. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files on the server, including sensitive files like authentication credentials. This can lead to full unauthorized access to the Bold Reports application, posing a critical security risk.
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 affected application and monitor for suspicious activity related to file access attempts.
