CVE-2026-114606: draw.io Desktop arbitrary local file disclosure

CVE-2026-114606 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-22

draw.io Desktop is a diagram editing application built on Electron for creating flowcharts, UML diagrams, and other visual content. Prior to version 31.4.4, attackers could read arbitrary files on the user's system by opening a specially crafted diagram file and exporting it, potentially exposing sensitive documents, configuration files, and private data. The vulnerability exploited a disparity in security controls between reading and writing files through the application's inter-process communication handlers.

Vendors: JGraph.

How to fix

Fixed in: 31.4.4

Upgrade to draw.io Desktop 31.4.4 or later. Do not open diagram files (.drawio) from untrusted sources, as a crafted diagram can exploit this vulnerability when opened and exported.

Technical details

The Electron main process's IPC read handlers (readFile, getFileDrafts, getBkpFile, fileStat, isFileWritable, checkFileExists, watchFile) lacked proper path authorization checks, while write-side handlers were protected by assertWritablePath validation. An attacker could craft a diagram with a malicious font source pointing to arbitrary local file paths; since the renderer-controlled fontSource is fetched via readFile and embedded in exports, opening and exporting the diagram allows arbitrary file disclosure. The validateSender origin check alone was insufficient to prevent this attack vector, as diagram content reaches IPC handlers independently.
