## What is CVE-2026-2330?

CVE-2026-2330 is a critical path traversal vulnerability in SICK Lector83x, published on 6 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

An attacker may access restricted filesystem areas on the device via the CROWN REST interface due to incomplete whitelist enforcement.

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-2330 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-2330 is a critical path traversal vulnerability in SICK Lector83x, published on 6 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-2330 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: SICK Lector83x. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
