CVE-2026-58166

OpenBMB ChatDev — OpenBMB ChatDev - Unauthenticated Path Traversal in Upload Handler Allows Arbitrary File Write and Delete

Description · from the CVE record

OpenBMB ChatDev through 2.2.0, fixed in commit 4fd4da6, contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to write or delete arbitrary files by supplying a malicious multipart filename in the file upload endpoint. Attackers can send a crafted filename containing path traversal sequences or an absolute path to the POST uploads session endpoint, which constructs the destination path without sanitization in save_upload_file, causing file write and cleanup operations to target attacker-chosen paths on the server filesystem.
