CVE-2026-7185: CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in T-Systems Archivo
A validation vulnerability has been identified in certain web features related to file management or upload in several products of the TAO 2.0 suite. This vulnerability could allow an attacker capable of interacting with the affected feature to attempt to access file system resources outside the scope intended by the application.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-7185) concerns improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory (CWE-22) in T-Systems Archivo. The issue arises from insufficient validation in certain web-based file management or upload features within the TAO 2.0 suite, enabling an attacker with limited privileges to potentially access unauthorized filesystem resources outside the application's intended scope. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.0, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, partial attack requirements, and high confidentiality impact. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available, and no known exploits have been reported.
Potential Impact
An attacker capable of interacting with the affected file management or upload features may exploit this vulnerability to access files and directories outside the intended restricted directory. This could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information. The confidentiality impact is high, while integrity and availability impacts are not indicated. No evidence of active exploitation is known.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict access to the affected features to trusted users only and monitor for unusual file access attempts. Avoid exposing vulnerable file management or upload functionalities to untrusted networks or users.
