CVE-2026-29065 Details
Description
changedetection.io is a free open source web page change detection tool. Prior to version 0.54.4, a Zip Slip vulnerability in the backup restore functionality allows arbitrary file overwrite via path traversal in uploaded ZIP archives. This issue has been patched in version 0.54.4.
A Zip Slip vulnerability has been identified in changedetection.io versions prior to 0.54.4. This vulnerability allows arbitrary file overwrites through path traversal in uploaded ZIP archives, exploiting the backup restore functionality. The issue arises because the application uses zipfile.extractall() without proper path validation, enabling malicious ZIP files to extract entries outside the intended directory, potentially overwriting sensitive files such as the Flask secret key or application settings.
Users can update to changedetection.io version 0.54.4 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
