Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in GitHub DataEase up to 2.10.23. It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is the function FileUtils.deleteFile of the component Font Management Module. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

DataEase is an open source data visualization and analysis tool. Prior to 2.10.24, the font management module allows authenticated users to submit an arbitrary fileTransName when creating a font record; when the record is later deleted, the backend concatenates that stored value with the font storage directory and passes it to FileUtils.deleteFile() without path traversal sanitization, allowing deletion of arbitrary writable files in the application container. This issue is fixed in version 2.10.24.

The advisory is shared at github.com. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2026-55631 since 06/17/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack can be launched remotely.
