Description
gSOAP 2.8 contains a directory traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to access system files by manipulating HTTP path traversal techniques. Attackers can retrieve sensitive files like /etc/passwd by sending crafted GET requests with multiple '../' directory traversal sequences.
Exploitation
Not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue as of 2026.09.04. That is an absence of confirmed public exploitation, not evidence that exploitation has not occurred. EPSS models a 1.2% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
