Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-27 18:32 – Updated: 2026-09-02 14:34Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-8mgp-746c-j5xp. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
NLTK through 3.10.3 contains a path traversal vulnerability in model-artifact APIs that bypass pathsec enforcement by using raw file operations on caller-controlled paths. Attackers can read or write files outside allowed sandbox roots through TransitionParser, AveragedPerceptron, PerceptronTagger, and maxent parameter APIs when pathsec is enabled.

GHSA-HRVQ-X7JP-36XV
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-10-05 23:28 – Updated: 2026-10-05 23:28Summary
nx migrate reads each target package's nx-migrations.migrations value from its manifest and extracts the referenced file to a path built by joining that value onto a temporary directory. The value is never validated, so a package whose migrations field contains .. segments (or an absolute path) steers the extraction to write outside the temporary directory. A hostile package — or any package pulled in transitively through a trusted package's packageGroup — can write attacker-controlled content, or truncate an existing file, anywhere the running user can write. This happens during migration planning, before the user reviews the migration list and before --run-migrations, so it does not require the user to approve or execute anything.
Most workspaces need no action. By default nx migrate does not run the nx installed in your workspace — it installs nx@latest into a temporary directory and performs the upgrade planning, including this extraction, with that copy. Now that a patched nx is the latest release, a default nx migrate run is unaffected whatever version the workspace has installed. The installed version only runs, and is only then exposed, when that hand-off is bypassed — see Remediation.
Severity
Exploitable when the victim runs nx migrate against a package the attacker controls, directly or through a trusted package's packageGroup. The primary impact is a file write with attacker-controlled content and no path confinement; overwriting an auto-loaded file (a shell rc, a git hook, a CI script) escalates that write to code execution. There is no known evidence of exploitation in the wild.
Affected & Patched Versions
| Package | Vulnerable | Patched |
|---|---|---|
nx |
>= 13.10.0, < 22.7.10; >= 23.0.0, < 23.2.1 |
22.7.10, 23.2.1 |
Every version in the ranges above is affected. The lower bound is 13.10.0, the first release where nx migrate extracted a package's migrations file from its tarball; earlier versions resolved migrations without that extraction.
[!IMPORTANT]
nx migratenormally fetches and runsnx@latestrather than the nx installed in your workspace. The ranges above therefore say where the vulnerable code ships, not who is exposed — it only runs when that hand-off is bypassed.
Remediation
If you run nx migrate normally, there is nothing to do. It resolves and runs the latest nx, which is patched, so your workspace's own nx version does not matter for this flaw.
Upgrade only if you bypass that hand-off and run the workspace's nx instead — that is, if you set NX_USE_LOCAL or NX_MIGRATE_USE_LOCAL, pin NX_MIGRATE_CLI_VERSION to an affected version, resume an existing run with --run-id, or run where the temporary install fails and nx migrate falls back to the local nx. In those cases upgrade to 22.7.10 (22.x line) or 23.2.1 (23.x line) or later:
nx migrate 23.2.1
The fix is a drop-in — no configuration changes are required, and no legitimate migrations value is affected (real packages reference ./migrations.json or another path within their own directory, all of which remain valid). Either way, do not run nx migrate against packages, or packageGroup members, that you do not trust.
Details
While planning an upgrade, nx migrate extracts each target package's migrations file to a destination built by joining the package's own nx-migrations.migrations value onto a temporary directory. That value is read from the manifest without validation, and it is handled asymmetrically: the name Nx matches against the archive entries is normalized (so its .. segments collapse), while the destination path it writes to is a raw join that keeps the .. segments and resolves outside the temporary directory. Because the attacker controls the tarball, they name their entry to equal the normalized form; the match then succeeds and the bytes are written to the un-normalized, escaping destination. The normalization is not a defence — it only dictates what the attacker must name their entry.
The same value also seeds the directory used for prompt-file extraction, which has the same shape, so both writes are steerable from the one field.
Two distinct primitives fall out of this:
- Truncation — the destination write stream is opened, and truncates, before any tar entry is inspected. So a package that points
migrationsat an existing file empties that file even when no tar entry matches — no crafted archive required. - Controlled write — when a tar entry's name matches, its bytes are written to the escaping destination. The extractor performs no path containment of its own.

GHSA-HXRR-X32W-CG8G
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-06-09 17:47 – Updated: 2025-06-09 21:44Summary
An authenticated Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the HAXCMS saveOutline endpoint allows a low-privileged user to read arbitrary files on the server by manipulating the location field written into site.json. This enables attackers to exfiltrate sensitive system files such as /etc/passwd, application secrets, or configuration files accessible to the web server (www-data).
Details
The vulnerability stems from the way the HAXCMS backend handles the location field in the site's outline. When a user sends a POST request to /system/api/saveOutline, the backend stores the provided location value directly into the site.json file associated with the site, without validating or sanitizing the input.
Later the location parameter is interpreted by the CMS like in HAXCMSSite.php line 1248 to resolve and load the content for a given node. If the location field contains a relative path like ../../../etc/passwd, the application will attempt to read and render that file.
PoC
-
Authenticate to the CMS and retrieve the JWT and CSRF token.
-
Issue a POST request to /system/api/saveOutline with the path traversal injection via the location parameter :
- Curl the website root to see the file contents.
Impact
This is an authenticated Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability, via the location parameter the attacker can read any file on the filesystem that is accessible by the www-data user.

GHSA-J4H9-PM27-4RFW
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-23 18:03 – Updated: 2026-08-21 18:28Impact
OctoPrint versions up until and including 1.11.7 as well as 2.0.0rc1 and 2.0.0rc2 contain a vulnerability that allows an attacker with the FILE_UPLOAD permission to exfiltrate files from the host that OctoPrint has read access to, by moving them into the upload folder where they then can be downloaded from. This vulnerability was already reported as GHSA-m9jh-jf9h-x3h2/CVE-2025-48067 but the fix provided in OctoPrint 1.11.2 turned out to be incomplete.
The primary risk lies in the potential exfiltration of secrets stored inside OctoPrint's config, or further system files. By removing important runtime files, this could also be used to impact the availability of the host after an attempted server restart. Given that the attacker requires a user account with file upload permissions, the actual impact of this should however hopefully be minimal in most cases.
Patches
The vulnerability has been patched in version 1.11.8 and 2.0.0rc3.
Details
OctoPrint's web application is implemented in Flask, but uploads are first intercepted by a custom upload handler built on Tornado that sits in front of it. The handler streams the upload to a temporary file on disk - so files larger than the available memory can be uploaded - and rewrites the request, adding internal form fields that tell Flask where to find that temporary file.
These fields are reserved and meant to be set only by the upload handler, never by the client. The previous fix from GHSA-m9jh-jf9h-x3h2/CVE-2025-48067 stripped them from the request received from the client when they were sent as multipart form fields, yet they could still reach Flask through other channels: as plain query parameters, or - since the Tornado handler and Flask did not parse requests identically - smuggled in via several "parser differentials" that looked harmless to the handler while Flask still saw the injected fields. Any of these let an attacker make OctoPrint treat an arbitrary file on the host as a freshly uploaded one and move it into the upload folder.
The following endpoints in OctoPrint are affected:
/api/files/{local|sdcard}/api/languages/plugin/backup/restore/plugin/pluginmanager/upload_file
Further upload endpoints in third party plugins might be affected too.
The fix rejects requests carrying any of the reserved fields, aligns the Tornado handler's request parsing with Flask's (Werkzeug) to avoid any differential parsing, and re-validates the request rewritten by Tornado before forwarding it to Flask.
Credits
This vulnerability was discovered and responsibly disclosed to OctoPrint by Koh Jun Sheng and Jacopo Tediosi.

Mitigation
When the set of filenames is limited or known, create a mapping from a set of fixed input values (such as numeric IDs) to the actual filenames, and reject all other inputs. For example, ID 1 could map to "inbox.txt" and ID 2 could map to "profile.txt". Features such as the ESAPI AccessReferenceMap provide this capability.
Mitigation
- Run your code in a "jail" or similar sandbox environment that enforces strict boundaries between the process and the operating system. This may effectively restrict all access to files within a particular directory.
- Examples include the Unix chroot jail and AppArmor. In general, managed code may provide some protection.
- This may not be a feasible solution, and it only limits the impact to the operating system; the rest of your application may still be subject to compromise.
- Be careful to avoid CWE-243 and other weaknesses related to jails.
Mitigation
For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks entirely. Then, these modified values would be submitted to the server.
Mitigation MIT-5.1
Strategy: Input Validation
- Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
- When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
- Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
- When validating filenames, use stringent allowlists that limit the character set to be used. If feasible, only allow a single "." character in the filename to avoid weaknesses such as CWE-23, and exclude directory separators such as "/" to avoid CWE-36. Use a list of allowable file extensions, which will help to avoid CWE-434.
- Do not rely exclusively on a filtering mechanism that removes potentially dangerous characters. This is equivalent to a denylist, which may be incomplete (CWE-184). For example, filtering "/" is insufficient protection if the filesystem also supports the use of "\" as a directory separator. Another possible error could occur when the filtering is applied in a way that still produces dangerous data (CWE-182). For example, if "../" sequences are removed from the ".../...//" string in a sequential fashion, two instances of "../" would be removed from the original string, but the remaining characters would still form the "../" string.
Mitigation
Use a built-in path canonicalization function (such as realpath() in C) that produces the canonical version of the pathname, which effectively removes ".." sequences and symbolic links (CWE-23, CWE-59).
Mitigation
Use OS-level permissions and run as a low-privileged user to limit the scope of any successful attack.
Mitigation
If you are using PHP, configure your application so that it does not use register_globals. During implementation, develop your application so that it does not rely on this feature, but be wary of implementing a register_globals emulation that is subject to weaknesses such as CWE-95, CWE-621, and similar issues.
Mitigation
Use tools and techniques that require manual (human) analysis, such as penetration testing, threat modeling, and interactive tools that allow the tester to record and modify an active session. These may be more effective than strictly automated techniques. This is especially the case with weaknesses that are related to design and business rules.
CAPEC-13: Subverting Environment Variable Values
The adversary directly or indirectly modifies environment variables used by or controlling the target software. The adversary's goal is to cause the target software to deviate from its expected operation in a manner that benefits the adversary.
CAPEC-267: Leverage Alternate Encoding
An adversary leverages the possibility to encode potentially harmful input or content used by applications such that the applications are ineffective at validating this encoding standard.
CAPEC-64: Using Slashes and URL Encoding Combined to Bypass Validation Logic
This attack targets the encoding of the URL combined with the encoding of the slash characters. An attacker can take advantage of the multiple ways of encoding a URL and abuse the interpretation of the URL. A URL may contain special character that need special syntax handling in order to be interpreted. Special characters are represented using a percentage character followed by two digits representing the octet code of the original character (%HEX-CODE). For instance US-ASCII space character would be represented with %20. This is often referred as escaped ending or percent-encoding. Since the server decodes the URL from the requests, it may restrict the access to some URL paths by validating and filtering out the URL requests it received. An attacker will try to craft an URL with a sequence of special characters which once interpreted by the server will be equivalent to a forbidden URL. It can be difficult to protect against this attack since the URL can contain other format of encoding such as UTF-8 encoding, Unicode-encoding, etc.
CAPEC-72: URL Encoding
This attack targets the encoding of the URL. An adversary can take advantage of the multiple way of encoding an URL and abuse the interpretation of the URL.
CAPEC-76: Manipulating Web Input to File System Calls
An attacker manipulates inputs to the target software which the target software passes to file system calls in the OS. The goal is to gain access to, and perhaps modify, areas of the file system that the target software did not intend to be accessible.
CAPEC-78: Using Escaped Slashes in Alternate Encoding
This attack targets the use of the backslash in alternate encoding. An adversary can provide a backslash as a leading character and causes a parser to believe that the next character is special. This is called an escape. By using that trick, the adversary tries to exploit alternate ways to encode the same character which leads to filter problems and opens avenues to attack.
CAPEC-79: Using Slashes in Alternate Encoding
This attack targets the encoding of the Slash characters. An adversary would try to exploit common filtering problems related to the use of the slashes characters to gain access to resources on the target host. Directory-driven systems, such as file systems and databases, typically use the slash character to indicate traversal between directories or other container components. For murky historical reasons, PCs (and, as a result, Microsoft OSs) choose to use a backslash, whereas the UNIX world typically makes use of the forward slash. The schizophrenic result is that many MS-based systems are required to understand both forms of the slash. This gives the adversary many opportunities to discover and abuse a number of common filtering problems. The goal of this pattern is to discover server software that only applies filters to one version, but not the other.
CAPEC-80: Using UTF-8 Encoding to Bypass Validation Logic
This attack is a specific variation on leveraging alternate encodings to bypass validation logic. This attack leverages the possibility to encode potentially harmful input in UTF-8 and submit it to applications not expecting or effective at validating this encoding standard making input filtering difficult. UTF-8 (8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format) is a variable-length character encoding for Unicode. Legal UTF-8 characters are one to four bytes long. However, early version of the UTF-8 specification got some entries wrong (in some cases it permitted overlong characters). UTF-8 encoders are supposed to use the "shortest possible" encoding, but naive decoders may accept encodings that are longer than necessary. According to the RFC 3629, a particularly subtle form of this attack can be carried out against a parser which performs security-critical validity checks against the UTF-8 encoded form of its input, but interprets certain illegal octet sequences as characters.
