CVE-2026-93353 - copyparty SFTP Volume Restriction Bypass via mkdir/rmdir/chattr Handlers

CVE ID :CVE-2026-93353
Published : Sept. 24, 2026, 9:18 p.m. | 1 hour, 52 minutes ago
Description :copyparty contains a volume restriction bypass vulnerability in its SFTP front end that allows authenticated SFTP users to create, remove, and truncate arbitrary paths outside permitted volume boundaries by exploiting three handlers that bypass the xvol volflag enforcement. The _mkdir, _rmdir, and _chattr handlers construct destination paths using vfs.get(), vn.canonical(), and os.path.join() without invoking the chk_ap access check, enabling attackers to traverse symlinks leaving a volume's top directory and perform unauthorized file creation, deletion, or truncation via SSH_FXP_SETSTAT operations on paths outside any volume the account is authorized to access.
Severity: 6.0 | MEDIUM
