An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-78602 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Elastic Maps Server. 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-2026-78602/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78602/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-78602","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78602/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-78602","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3435-h7j6-qq7r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Elastic Maps Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can exploit a path traversal flaw in Elastic Maps Server to read arbitrary files from the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"elastic","cpe":[{"product":"maps_server","vendor":"elastic"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","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') (CWE-22) in Elastic Maps Server can lead to information disclosure via Path Traversal (CAPEC-126).
