Summary
Agent Zero before version 1.15 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by supplying crafted paths to the image file serving endpoint. The security mechanism relies solely on an extension allowlist while path containment checking is explicitly disabled.
Risk Assessment
Attackers can read any file with an image extension accessible by the process, including files outside the agent workspace, user home directories, and mounted volumes. Symlink-based escapes are also possible due to the lack of path canonicalization.
Recommendation
Upgrade Agent Zero to version 1.15 or later immediately. If upgrading is not possible, restrict access to the image file serving endpoint to trusted networks and users only.
Other vulnerabilities in Agent Zero
See all- CVE-2026-51853Unknown
agent-zero 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10 is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in python/helpers/file_browser.py:FileBrowser.__init__. The FileBrowser class initializes with the host root directory as the workspace, allowing the agent to access any file on the system without restriction.
- CVE-2026-51852Unknown
agent-zero 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10 is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in python/helpers/file_browser.py:FileBrowser.save_file_b64. The save_file_b64 method accepts user-controlled file paths without normalization or validation, allowing path traversal attacks.
- CVE-2026-47119Medium
Agent Zero before version 1.15 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability. An attacker can place a crafted SVG file with JavaScript code in a path readable by the agent-zero process and then trick an authenticated user into visiting the image_get endpoint, causing the browser to execute the malicious script.
Original NVD description (English source)
Agent Zero before version 1.15 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files by supplying crafted paths to the image file serving endpoint, which relies solely on an extension allowlist while the path containment check is explicitly disabled. Attackers can request any file with an image extension readable by the process, including files outside the agent workspace, user home directories, and mounted volumes, and can also leverage symlink-based escapes due to the lack of path canonicalization in the path resolution logic.
