Summary
The HTTP server in Zephyr (subsys/net/lib/http) is vulnerable to path traversal in the static filesystem resource handler (HTTP_RESOURCE_TYPE_STATIC_FS). An attacker can send a GET request with ../ sequences in the URL path to read arbitrary files outside the configured root directory. Affects versions v4.0.0 through v4.4.0 when file system support (CONFIG_FILE_SYSTEM) is enabled.
Risk Assessment
An unauthenticated remote attacker can read arbitrary readable files on the mounted volume, leading to disclosure of sensitive organizational data such as configurations, keys, or user data.
Recommendation
Immediately update Zephyr to a patched version (v4.4.1 or later) or apply the fix manually. If updating is not possible, temporarily disable the static filesystem resource (HTTP_RESOURCE_TYPE_STATIC_FS) or restrict access to the HTTP server via firewall.

- CVE-2026-123614Critical
imgproxy from 4.0.0 before 4.0.16 contains an integer overflow in the ICO loader that allows remote attackers to trigger a heap buffer overflow via a crafted data_size value. Attackers can submit a crafted ICO image whose data_size wraps the allocation in vips/icoload.c, corrupting heap memory to crash the process or achieve code execution.
- CVE-2026-123551Critical
OpenAM from 14.0.0 before 16.1.4 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read live session tokens from the notification WebSocket. Attackers can bypass the agent-only check through an unvalidated internal forward on legacy Liberty ID-FF endpoints, collecting iPlanetDirectoryPro tokens to hijack user and administrator sessions.
- CVE-2026-123550Critical
OpenAM before 16.1.4 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in its SAML v2.0 service provider that accepts unsigned assertions on the ECP (PAOS) and HTTP-Artifact bindings when WantAssertionsSigned is false. Unauthenticated remote attackers can submit forged assertions to obtain sessions as any mapped user, including administrators, and hijack single sign-on to dependent applications.
- CVE-2026-123549Critical
OpenAM before 16.1.4 fails to enforce the Valid Creation Attributes list during self-registration, allowing anonymous attackers to set restricted attributes including group membership. Attackers can register through the legacy self-service REST endpoint or User Self-Service flow to join administrative groups and gain full administrative control of OpenAM.

A security flaw has been discovered in TOTOLINK CA300-PoE 6.2c.884. This impacts the function setWiFiMultipleConfig of the file /cgi-bin/cstecgi.cgi. Manipulation of the argument Key1Str1 results in a buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.
- CVE-2026-123966Critical
A vulnerability was found in Tenda AC19 version 16.03.10.07 in the saveParentControlInfo function of the /goform/saveParentControlInfo file. Manipulating the deviceId argument causes a heap-based buffer overflow. The attack can be carried out remotely, and the exploit has been publicly disclosed.
- CVE-2026-120984Critical
A flaw was found in the Keycloak server's client management component. When a client is created or imported with authorization services enabled, the system fails to properly clear an internal session attribute used during setup. An authenticated attacker with client management permissions can bypass security controls and upload a malicious JavaScript policy that executes on the server.
Original NVD description (English source)
Zephyr's HTTP server (subsys/net/lib/http) provides a static-filesystem resource type (HTTP_RESOURCE_TYPE_STATIC_FS, available when CONFIG_FILE_SYSTEM is enabled) that serves files from a configured root directory. Before this fix, both the HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 front-ends placed the raw, attacker-controlled request path into client->url_buffer (assembled in on_url() for HTTP/1 and copied verbatim from the :path pseudo-header for HTTP/2) without resolving ./.. segments. The static-FS handler then built the on-disk filename by directly concatenating the configured root with that raw URL (snprintk(fname, ..., "%s%s", static_fs_detail->fs_path, client->url_buffer) at http_server_http1.c:603 and http_server_http2.c:490) and opened it with fs_open(fname, FS_O_READ). Because the handler is reached via wildcard/leading-dir (fnmatch FNM_LEADING_DIR) or fallback resource matching, a request such as GET /<prefix>/../../<file> is dispatched to the handler and, after the underlying filesystem (e.g. LittleFS/FAT) resolves the .. segments, escapes the configured web root, letting an unauthenticated remote client read arbitrary readable files on the mounted volume (information disclosure). The HTTP server requires no TLS or authentication to reach this path. The fix adds http_server_remove_dot_segments(), which canonicalizes the path portion of the URL before resource lookup in both protocol handlers, neutralizing the traversal. Affects releases v4.0.0 through v4.4.0 for deployments that register a static-filesystem resource.
