CVE-2026-2976Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated file disclosure via unsanitized download path

Published Feb 23, 2026 · Updated Feb 23, 2026

Path traversal in FastApiAdmin 2.0 through 2.2.0 allows remote authenticated users to read server files through the download endpoint. The download_controller passes the request body's file_path to Path.open through download_service and UploadUtil without sanitization or canonicalization. Access requires the module_common:file:download permission; absolute paths or traversal sequences expose files readable by the service account.
