Unauthenticated code execution via package extraction traversal
Published Apr 22, 2025 · Updated Nov 29, 2025
Path traversal in Commvault Command Center Innovation Release 11.38.0 through 11.38.19 allows remote attackers to execute code. The unauthenticated deployWebpackage.do handler fetches an attacker-hosted ZIP, and deployCCPackage uses the servicePack value without constraining the extraction path, placing a malicious JSP in a web-served directory. Network access to Command Center is sufficient to run the JSP under the web server account and compromise that installation.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
