Microweber CMS 2.0.20 Path Traversal via ServeStaticFileController

Published Jul 23, 2026 · Updated Jul 28, 2026 · Assigned by VulnCheck

Vendor: microweber Product: microweber

Description

Microweber CMS through 2.0.20 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the static file controller that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files by supplying directory traversal sequences in the path query parameter. Attackers can send a single unauthenticated HTTP GET request exploiting the failure of normalize_path() to strip traversal sequences, disclosing sensitive files such as environment configuration files containing credentials and system files.
