CVE-2026-40547 — SOPlanning is vulnerable to Path Traversal in backup endpoints
SOPlanning is vulnerable to Path Traversal in backup endpoints. Authenticated remote attacker is able to exploit a vulnerable endpoint and construct payloads that allow reading and executing files previously added through the backup functionality. Critically, due to CVE-2026-40543 (Missing Authorization), any backup file can be read by any (unauthorized) user. This issue affects SOPlanning version 1.55 and below.

Matched remediation archetype
Path traversal, unsafe upload, and file handling
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace untrusted filenames, archive entries, URLs, and path segments into read, write, include, extraction, and upload operations.
- Identify filesystem roots, mount permissions, symbolic-link behavior, archive handling, and whether uploaded content is web-accessible or executable.
- Review canonicalization and containment checks across supported operating systems and storage backends.
Remediate safely
- Generate server-side storage identifiers and resolve paths beneath a fixed root using filesystem-aware containment checks.
- Reject absolute, parent-relative, alternate-separator, device, link, and archive entries that escape the intended root.
- Store uploads outside executable or served paths, validate type and size, and use private atomic temporary files.
