Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in AsyncFuncAI deepwiki-open (version now known). It has been classified as problematic. Affected is some unknown processing of the component Local-Repository Structure Endpoint. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

A path traversal vulnerability in AsyncFuncAI deepwiki-open through commit 16f35a0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to obtain directory listings for arbitrary filesystem paths via the local-repository structure endpoint. The endpoint accepts an absolute filesystem path parameter and returns a directory listing without authentication, as WIKI_AUTH_MODE defaults to false. An attacker can enumerate sensitive directory contents on the host system.

The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-72602 since 08/10/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available. This vulnerability is assigned to T1006 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

Applying the patch 16f35a0 is able to eliminate this problem.
