Technical details

The vulnerability is a path traversal flaw (CWE-22) in Octopus Server's non built-in external feed handling logic. A user with permission to modify external feeds can craft a malicious feed path that bypasses directory restrictions and overwrites arbitrary files on the server. The attack requires valid user credentials with feed modification privileges. In environments where Octopus Server runs with elevated privileges or where writable locations contain executable code, this can escalate to remote code execution. Patches are available in versions 2026.1.11725, 2026.2.13344, and 2026.3.15816 or later.
