Doc Text:
A flaw was found in WsgiDAV, a WebDAV server. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted WebDAV request path containing encoded parent-directory segments. This could allow the attacker to escape the configured filesystem share root, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive files or directories outside the intended scope.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-13 19:34:23 UTC
WsgiDAV is a generic and extendable WebDAV server based on WSGI. WsgiDAV 4.3.3 and prior can allow a WebDAV request path containing an encoded parent-directory segment to escape the configured filesystem share root in a specific path layout. The issue is fixed with version 4.3.4.
