It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-91797 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Foxit Pdf Editor. 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-2026-91797/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-91797/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-91797","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-91797/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-91797","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6389-9862-wmcf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF editor software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code by crafting PDFs with malicious attachment names that bypass directory restrictions in Foxit PDF products.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Foxit","cpe":[{"product":"pdf_editor","vendor":"foxit"},{"product":"pdf_reader","vendor":"foxit"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-73","name":"External Control of File Name or Path"}],"description":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader failed to validate the directory traversal path in the attachment file name, resulting in malicious attachments being able to be written to directories outside the expected secure area when the PDF is opened.","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":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader Portfolio Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-91797","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"foxit:pdf_editor","products":["foxit:pdf_editor","foxit:pdf_reader"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader Updater Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-91798"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader importIcon NTLM Response Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-91796"},"products":["Foxit PDF Editor","Foxit PDF Reader"],"published":"2026-09-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28104","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-24954","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-24955","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader Updater Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-91798","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Foxit PDF Editor installer local privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2026-91800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Security Vulnerability Report – Foxit PDF Editor/Reader Updater DLL Search Path Hijacking","id":"CVE-2026-91803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Foxit PDF Editor/Reader FoxitUpdater Race Condition Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-91813","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-23"}],"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":"2026-09-23","vendors":["Foxit Software Inc."]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code by crafting PDFs with malicious attachment names that bypass directory restrictions in Foxit PDF products.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-91797/"}
