What is CVE-2026-54202?
CVE-2026-54202 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in Tobit Laboratories AG TeamDavid, published on 7 Aug 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
Tobit Laboratories AG TeamDavid's Webbox is vulnerable to a path traversal vulnerability in the archive creation functionality. Because the archive path is user-controlled and insufficiently validated, an attacker can manipulate the input to traverse directories. This allows the creation of folders in arbitrary locations, including sensitive directories such as C:\Windows or for different users. This issue affects TeamDavid before Rollout 528.
Starting with Rollout 528 (June 30, 2026), the affected functionality is disabled by default and the vulnerabilities are therefore no longer exposed through this functionality.
Weakness: CWE-36
