CVE-2026-92186
HighCVSS 8.8Summary
The paFnUploadFileAndCreateInfo script in Quest Foglight for Databases lacks proper validation of a user-supplied path before file operations, enabling directory traversal. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker can manipulate file paths and achieve code execution with SYSTEM privileges, leading to full system compromise.
Recommendation
Update Quest Foglight for Databases to the patched version and limit privileges of accounts used for file upload operations.
Other vulnerabilities in Quest Foglight for Databases
See all- CVE-2026-92200High
An incorrect permission assignment vulnerability in Quest Foglight for Databases allows local privilege escalation. The flaw exists in the product installer due to incorrect permissions on a folder used by the product.
- CVE-2026-92199High
Quest Foglight for Databases uses a hard-coded cryptographic key within the symmetricDecrypt method. An attacker able to execute low-privileged code can exploit this flaw to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92198High
The getSource method in Quest Foglight for Databases improperly restricts XML External Entity (XXE) references. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause the XML parser to access an attacker-specified URI and disclose information in the context of the application.
- CVE-2026-92197High
The unzipFile method in Quest Foglight for Databases lacks proper validation of a user-supplied path before file operations, enabling directory traversal. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92196High
The renderTemplateString method in Quest Foglight for Databases fails to properly validate a user-supplied string before processing it with the template engine, resulting in server-side template injection. An authenticated remote attacker can execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92195High
The loadEvolveLicense script in Quest Foglight for Databases lacks proper validation of a user-supplied path before file operations, enabling directory traversal. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92194High
The loadManageServerLicense script in Quest Foglight for Databases lacks proper validation of a user-supplied path before file operations, enabling directory traversal. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92193Medium
A vulnerability in the FileServlet class of Quest Foglight for Databases allows an authenticated remote attacker to disclose sensitive information. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path before it is used in file operations.
- CVE-2026-92192High
The installLicense script in Quest Foglight for Databases lacks proper validation of a user-supplied path before file operations, enabling directory traversal. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-92191High
The runScript function in Quest Foglight for Databases performs incorrect authorization before allowing access to functionality. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM.
Original NVD description (English source)
Quest Foglight for Databases paFnUploadFileAndCreateInfo Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Quest Foglight for Databases. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the paFnUploadFileAndCreateInfo script. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-29038.
