CVE-2026-70592

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From 1.20.1 until 6.54.1, an Administrator-level user could remotely overwrite certain files on the filesystem through the database backup filename, leading to integrity and availability issues. The database export endpoint failed to reject path separators in the caller-supplied filename. This issue is fixed in version 6.54.1.

El endpoint de exportación de la base de datos no pudo rechazar los separadores de ruta en el nombre de archivo proporcionado por el llamador. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 6.54.1."
