CVE-2025-33036Network attack vector

Authenticated file disclosure via undisclosed path traversal

Published Aug 29, 2025 · Updated Aug 29, 2025

Path traversal in QNAP Qsync Central before 4.5.0.7 allows remote authenticated users to read unexpected files or system data. QNAP has not identified the affected request handler or disclosed how an attacker-controlled path escapes the intended directory. A valid user account and network reachability are required, and the documented consequence is exposure of data accessible to the service.
