CVE-2026-5487Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file disclosure via unvalidated service paths

Published Jul 29, 2026 · Updated Jul 29, 2026

Path traversal in DriveLock Enterprise Service allows remote attackers to read arbitrary server files without authentication over TCP port 4568. The web service accepts a user-supplied file path containing parent-directory sequences and uses it in file operations without constraining the resolved path to the intended directory. The service listens on TCP port 4568 by default, and successful requests expose files readable by the service account without changing data.
