Other vulnerabilities in Arcane
See all- CVE-2026-45625Critical
Arcane prior to version 1.19.0 has a vulnerability where eight REST API endpoints related to Git repositories lack admin role verification. This allows any logged-in user with the default user role to manage Git repository configurations and exfiltrate stored credentials (PATs, SSH keys) by repointing a repository to an attacker-controlled host.
- CVE-2026-86114Medium
Arcane versions before 2.0.0 fail to properly restrict template operations, allowing default user role accounts to create, modify, and delete compose templates including instance-wide defaults. Attackers can inject malicious container configurations with privileged settings or host path mounts that execute with administrative privileges when deployed by administrators.
- CVE-2026-47125High
Arcane, an interface for managing Docker containers, before version 1.19.2 contains a vulnerability due to missing admin authorization check on the PUT /api/environments/{id}/templates/variables endpoint. Any authenticated non-admin user can overwrite global environment variables used across all projects.
- CVE-2026-45626Medium
In Arcane 1.18.1 and earlier, the GET /environments/{id}/volumes/{volumeName}/browse endpoint accepts a path query parameter that is passed to a shell command (sh -c "find … | while …") inside an Arcane helper container. The path sanitizer blocks ../ traversal but does not strip Bourne-shell metacharacters such as $() or backticks, and strconv.Quote only escapes Go string metacharacters, not shell substitution sequences. Any authenticated user with access to a browseable volume can execute arbitrary commands inside the helper container; command output is reflected back in the 500 error body.
- CVE-2026-42461High
In Arcane prior to version 1.18.0, four GET endpoints under /api/templates* lack authentication, allowing unauthenticated clients to read the full Compose YAML and .env content of every template, including sensitive data such as database passwords and API keys.
