Submit #829596: Microweber 2.0.20 Path Traversalinfo

TitleMicroweber 2.0.20 Path Traversal
DescriptionAn unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability exists in Microweber v2.0.20 in the publicly reachable hidden API endpoint /api_nosession/thumbnail_img. The cache_path_relative parameter is not properly validated before being used in filesystem path construction, and traversal sequences such as ../ are not removed. Under the tested conditions, this allows arbitrary file read and path-controlled file write outside the intended thumbnail cache directory. The issue was privately reported to the vendor by email in early April 2026. A limited public GitHub issue was opened in mid-April 2026, but as of May 14, 2026 no vendor response has been received. Public technical references are provided for CNA/VulDB review.
