CVE-2026-23521

MEDIUM CVSS 3.1: 6.5 EPSS 0.08%
Updated Feb 24, 2026
Versions
Parameter Value
CVSS 6.5 (MEDIUM)
Type CWE-22 (Path Traversal), CWE-73 (External Control of File Name or Path)
Vendor Versions
Public PoC No

Versions of the Traccar open-source GPS tracking system up to and including 6.11.1 contain an issue in which authenticated users who can create or edit devices can set a device `uniqueId` to an absolute path. When uploading a device image, Traccar uses that `uniqueId` to build the filesystem path without enforcing that the resolved path stays under the media root. This allows writing files outside the media directory.

As of time of publication, it is unclear whether a fix is available.
