FAQ

Questions about CVE-2026-120324

What does this mean?

A path traversal flaw in the http-filesystem binding's path handling lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker reach files outside the intended directory. The reported impact is reading arbitrary files readable by the Zilla process, and creating, overwriting, or deleting files.Source: github.com

Am I affected, and how do I check?

The checked facts list Zilla versions up to 2.4.7, verified on 2.4.7. The relevant setup is a route parameter substituted into the http-filesystem binding's with.path or with.directory; check the Zilla version and whether the configuration does this.Source: github.com

What should I do about it?

The checked facts do not name a fixed Zilla release, so no upgrade target can be given from them. Check the vendor's advisory for a fixed version.Source: github.com

Is it being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
