# CVE-2026-127075: OpsTree BuildPiper file read via path traversal in manifest rendering

Affects BuildPiper before 2.7.0 when Additional Manifest file paths are processed by the renderer. Fixed in 2.7.0.

- Severity: CVSS 7.1 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Exposure: Specific setups only
- Attention: Reference. No open trigger. (last checked 2026-11-13)
- Fixed in: 2.7.0
- Published: 2026-11-13 · Updated: 2026-11-13

CVE-2026-127075 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 7.1 (high) and affects BuildPiper; fixed in 2.7.0.

## Summary

OpsTree BuildPiper versions before 2.7.0 contain a path traversal flaw that lets an attacker who has a low-privilege login read arbitrary files over the network by entering traversal sequences in Additional Manifest file paths. The renderer then embeds the file contents in generated manifests and logs, which can expose configuration files and service-account tokens.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Who should check

Teams running OpsTree BuildPiper before 2.7.0 that let authenticated users supply Additional Manifest file paths.

## Affected

- OpsTree Solutions BuildPiper: fixed in 2.7.0

## Description

OpsTree BuildPiper before 2.7.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows authenticated users to read arbitrary files by supplying traversal sequences in Additional Manifest file paths. Attackers can enter paths like ../../../../etc/passwd so the renderer embeds file contents in generated manifests and logs, exposing configuration files and service-account tokens.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on OpsTree Solutions BuildPiper, upgrade to a fixed version (2.7.0) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, run the stack.check operation (execute) on the cve.now MCP server (https://mcp.cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.

## Check your systems with an agent

```text
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-127075 (OpsTree BuildPiper before 2.7.0 Path Traversal via Additional Manifest Rendering), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-127075 (entry last updated 2026-11-13):
Affected:
- OpsTree Solutions BuildPiper: fixed in 2.7.0
Fixed versions: 2.7.0.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- BuildPiper versions before 2.7.0 (source: https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/opstree-buildpiper-before-2.7.0-path-traversal-via-additional-manifest-rendering)
- Feature: Additional Manifest file paths are processed by the renderer (source: https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/opstree-buildpiper-before-2.7.0-path-traversal-via-additional-manifest-rendering)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, low-privilege login, no user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-127075 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-127075 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:

Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.

## FAQ

### Is CVE-2026-127075 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: https://cve.now/CVE-2026-127075

### What does this mean?

Authenticated users can read arbitrary files by supplying path traversal sequences in Additional Manifest file paths. Readable files can include configuration files and service-account tokens, which the renderer embeds in generated manifests and logs.
