CVE-2026-52832 Details
Description
Nuclio is a "Serverless" framework for Real-Time Events and Data Processing. Prior to version 1.16.5, Nuclio Dashboard exposes POST /api/functions without authentication by default (NOP auth mode). The spec.handler field (e.g., mymodule:myfunction) is parsed by functionconfig.ParseHandler() which splits on : only — no path validation is applied to the module portion. This issue has been patched in version 1.16.5.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the Nuclio Dashboard prior to version 1.16.5. The issue arises because the Dashboard's 'POST /api/functions' endpoint is exposed without authentication by default. The vulnerability allows for arbitrary file writes as the root user within the container filesystem.
Users can update to Nuclio version 1.16.5 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched. Alternatively, authentication can be enabled on the Dashboard or network-level access controls can be implemented to restrict access to trusted networks.
