Technical details

The vulnerability is a path traversal flaw (CWE-22) in Szafir's update mechanism. An attacker positioned to intercept HTTPS traffic can reroute update requests to their own server and provide a specially crafted XML file with path traversal sequences in the filename; the application fails to validate the filename and writes the file to the attacker-specified path. This requires network-level MITM capability but is exacerbated by CVE-2026-106036 (improper certificate validation), which allows the attacker to impersonate the update server without a valid certificate.
