CVE-2026-72814Source published Source updated
The actix-files crate (actix_files) before version 0.6.10 contains an information exposure vulnerability. When a non-existing folder is passed as the serve_from argument to Files::new(), the mount path defaults to an empty path; the service then joins the request path with this empty path and canonicalizes it, causing Rust to resolve it as a relative path. As a result, an attacker can request paths that resolve relative to the application's working directory and access unintended files. This allows an attacker to access unintended files, leading to information disclosure. Red Hat OpenShift Update Service is affected by this vulnerability. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N). Weakness: CWE-22. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA…
- Affected products in this advisory
- Red Hat OpenShift Update Service
- Source-reported affected versions
- < 0.6.10
- Source-reported fixed versions
- No fixed-version detail extracted. This does not mean no fix exists.
- Mitigation guidance
- To mitigate this issue, ensure that any directory specified for the `serve_from` argument in applications utilizing the `actix-files` crate exists prior to application startup. This prevents the vulnerable condition where a non-existent path causes the service to default to an empty mount path, leading to unintended relative path traversal and information disclosure.
