VU#614868: OpenCart ecommerce platform contains directory traversal vulnerability

OpenCart 4.2.0.0 extension installer fails to validate zip extraction paths, allowing directory traversal (CVE-2026-18412) to write files outside intended directories.

CERT/CC VU#614868 discloses CVE-2026-18412, a directory traversal vulnerability in OpenCart v4.2.0.0's extension installer. The installer extracts uploaded .ocmod.zip files using zip entry filenames as filesystem paths without verifying the resolved path stays inside the intended directory. A malicious extension zip could result in arbitrary file writes outside the target directory.

[webapps] Ray 2.56.0 - Directory Traversal & Local File Inclusion

Public exploit released for directory traversal and local file inclusion in Ray 2.56.0, the widely used distributed ML framework.

Exploit-DB entry 52635 publishes a web application exploit targeting Ray 2.56.0, the distributed computing framework from Anyscale commonly used for ML workloads. The PoC demonstrates a directory traversal and local file inclusion condition, allowing attackers to read files outside the intended path on an exposed Ray instance. Ray dashboard instances exposed to the internet could leak sensitive files such as credentials and configuration.

Flextype v1.0.0-alpha.3 CMS registerShortcodes() Remote Code Execution via Attacker-Controlled File Inclusion

Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 allows PHP remote code execution via path traversal in the Entries API combined with shortcode file inclusion.

Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 exposes a remote code execution path through the interaction of the Entries API and Shortcodes::registerShortcodes(). The /api/v1/entries endpoint accepts attacker-controlled entry identifiers containing path traversal sequences, allowing PHP-containing content to be written outside the intended entries directory. A subsequent attacker-controlled path can then be included and executed as PHP. Ron E posted the disclosure to the Full Disclosure mailing list on September 3, 2026.

Hack One Robot, Reach the Next: Unitree G1 Security Flaws

Researcher chained two Unitree G1 flaws (CVE-2026-76639, CVE-2026-76640) to gain unauthenticated root access, with compromised robots able to infect others via Bluetooth.

Security researcher Olivier Laflamme chained a path-traversal file-write flaw (CVE-2026-76639) in the G1 chatbot service and a Bluetooth server buffer overflow (CVE-2026-76640) to achieve unauthenticated root access remotely. The chain abuses Unitree's cloud API as a decryption oracle for the AES-128 key that unlocks BLE and WebRTC channels, and a compromised robot can propagate the attack to nearby G1 units. Unitree patched the cloud ownership-check flaw, paid a $5,000 bounty, and firmware fixes for BLE pairing and the buffer overflow remain harder to deliver.
