CVE-2020-37078Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated file deletion via unchecked import path

Published Feb 3, 2026 · Updated Feb 3, 2026

Arbitrary file deletion in Open Source CMDB 1.14.1 allows remote authenticated users to remove server files through an import request. The import module treats the delete_import POST parameter as a filename and deletes the referenced filesystem object without constraining the path. A low-privileged authenticated session can target files accessible to the web application account, causing data loss or service interruption without disclosing file contents.
