CVE-2026-48906Network attack vectorHinoki check available

Unauthenticated arbitrary file deletion

Published May 27, 2026 · Updated May 27, 2026

Arbitrary file deletion in affected Tassos Joomla extensions allows remote attackers to delete files through network requests. The Joomla CNA identifies the shared Tassos Framework plugin as the vulnerable component but does not disclose the request handler or operation that accepts an attacker-selected file. No authentication or user interaction is required, and the consequence is bounded to files the Joomla server process can delete.
