CVE-2026-1018Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file read via absolute path traversal

Published Jan 16, 2026 · Updated Jan 16, 2026

Absolute path traversal in Gotac Police Statistics Database System 1.0.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary system files. TWCERT/CC has not disclosed the affected endpoint or parameter; it states only that an absolute path is accepted to download a chosen file. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the documented consequence is file disclosure without modification or service interruption.
