An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-12609 exists.\n\nAffected product: Eclipse Theia. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12609/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12609/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-12609","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12609/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-12609","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-34gw-v4cc-pv7c","GHSA-qmm6-p8q4-2g48"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Eclipse Theia IDE","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can exploit a path traversal vulnerability in Eclipse Theia to read arbitrary files from the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"eclipse","cpe":[{"product":"theia","vendor":"eclipse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"In Eclipse Theia versions 1.66.0 and up until including 1.73.1, the `@theia/plugin-ext` backend exposes the `/hostedPlugin/:pluginId/:path(*)` HTTP endpoint, which resolves the requested file path with `path.resolve(localPath, filePath)` without verifying that the resolved path stays within the plugin's directory. An unauthenticated network attacker can send percent-encoded `../` sequences (`%2e%2e%2f`) that decode into the path parameter and escape the plugin directory, allowing arbitrary files readable by the Theia backend process to be retrieved. Plugin IDs are derived deterministically from a plugin's publisher and name, so built-in plugins serve as reliable anchors that require no prior knowledge of the target system.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2026/CVE-2026-12609.yaml","stars":null,"title":"Eclipse Theia - Unauthenticated Path Traversal"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Path traversal in Eclipse Theia","id":"CVE-2026-12609","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Sssd: use-after-free crash in sssd' 'sssd_pam' process","id":"CVE-2026-12610"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in Eclipse GlassFish","id":"CVE-2026-12606"},"products":["Eclipse Theia"],"published":"2026-08-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"XML external entity in Eclipse Theia","id":"CVE-2021-34436","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-02"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Cross-site Scripting (XSS) in Eclipse Theia","id":"CVE-2020-27224","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-24"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in Eclipse Theia","id":"CVE-2026-60009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Remote code execution in Eclipse Theia","id":"CVE-2021-34435","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-01"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"[Eclipse Theia] Indirect Prompt Injection via Adversarial Workspace File and Directory Names in AI Chat","id":"CVE-2026-44688","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-18"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"[Eclipse Theia] Arbitrary Command Execution via Untrusted Workspace Task Definitions","id":"CVE-2026-44691","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-18"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"[Eclipse Theia] Indirect Prompt Injection via Auto-Loaded Workspace Prompt Template Files in AI Chat","id":"CVE-2026-46580","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-18"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-05","vendors":["Eclipse Foundation"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can exploit a path traversal vulnerability in Eclipse Theia to read arbitrary files from the server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12609/"}
