Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-49163 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Application Insights Profiler. 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-2026-49163/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49163/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-49163","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49163/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-49163","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vh56-6m73-5483"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Application Insights Profiler","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authorized attacker can exploit a path traversal flaw in Application Insights Profiler to elevate privileges over the network.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"application_insights_profiler","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory ('path traversal') in Application Insights Profiler allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Application Insights Profiler Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-49163","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Windows Active Directory Domain Services Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-49164"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Microsoft Brokering File System Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-49162"},"products":["Application Insights Profiler"],"published":"2026-08-06","related":[],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-28","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An authorized attacker can exploit a path traversal flaw in Application Insights Profiler to elevate privileges over the network.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49163/"}
