CVE-2026-122013Comfast CF-WR632AX path traversal
CVE-2026-122013 is a path traversal in Comfast CF-WR632AX, rated critical (9.3 on CVSS 4.0).
Why this priority: Critical, and reachable over the network without an account.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred
What it is
A file name from the request can climb out of the intended folder with sequences like ../, reaching files the service never meant to expose.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can read the data it protects, change data or behaviour and take it offline. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or write files outside the folders the service meant to expose. The damage can spread past the vulnerable component into others.
Is it being exploited?
CISA's SSVC assessment notes a public proof of concept. It can be exploited automatically, at scale. EPSS estimates a 0.82% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 58% of scored CVEs.
What to do
- No fixed version is listed yet. Find every place Comfast CF-WR632AX runs, watch the references for a fix, and plan a replacement if it is no longer supported.
- While there is no fix, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.
Description from NVD
A vulnerability was detected in Comfast CF-WR632AX 2.6.0.1. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file /usr/bin/webmgnt of the component Multipart Parser. Performing a manipulation of the argument filename results in path traversal. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- File storage the service can read or write. The flaw sits between the application and the file system it can reach.
Trust boundaries in play
- Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
- Isolation between components. The impact crosses out of the vulnerable component into others it should be isolated from.
- Between the application and the file system it can reach. An attacker who crosses it can read or write files outside the folders the service meant to expose.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does Comfast CF-WR632AX run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
