CVE-2026-28701Network attack vector

Path enumeration via unrestricted directory traversal

Published Jun 26, 2026 · Updated Jun 26, 2026

Path traversal in Daktronics DMP-5000, DMP-8000, and VFC-DMP-5000 firmware allows remote attackers to enumerate file-system paths. The firmware accepts a path that escapes its intended directory and returns arbitrary path listings; CISA has not identified the affected endpoint or disclosed the validation error. Unauthenticated access is sufficient on some configurations, while others require authenticated access; the published impact is path-name disclosure, not confirmed file-content access.
