Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-41205)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to path traversal in TemplateLookup.get_template() when processing a URI that starts with a double-slash prefix. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted template URI to disclose sensitive information.
Exploitation requires an application to pass untrusted input directly to the vulnerable API, and HTTP-based exploitation depends on a server that does not normalize double-slash-prefixed paths.
