CVE-2026-113651 Details
Description
ApostropheCMS is an open-source Node.js content management system, and uploadfs is its file storage library. Prior to uploadfs 1.28.0, attacker-controlled paths that reach the local backend can contain parent-directory segments that escape the configured upload directory and affect file reads, writes, and deletion on the host filesystem. Exploitability depends on an application exposing the relevant uploadfs operations to untrusted path. This issue is fixed in uploadfs 1.28.0.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the Uploadfs library used by ApostropheCMS. Prior to version 1.28.0, the local storage backend of Uploadfs failed to properly validate user-supplied file paths. This oversight allowed attackers to inject parent-directory segments, escaping the intended upload directory and manipulating files on the host filesystem. The vulnerability is exploitable when an application exposes Uploadfs operations to untrusted paths.
Users are advised to update to Uploadfs version 1.28.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
