CVE-2026-129130callstack agent-device external control of a file name
CVE-2026-129130 is a external control of a file name in callstack agent-device, rated high (7.1 on CVSS 4.0).
Why this priority: High severity, with no exploitation signal yet.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Received
What it is
Input decides which file the software opens, so a caller can point it elsewhere.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, with an ordinary user account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can read the data it protects. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or write files outside the folders the service meant to expose.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet.
What to do
- Upgrade callstack agent-device to 0.21.37 or later.
- Until it is patched, review who holds accounts that can reach it.
Description from NVD
agent-device from 0.21.36 before 0.21.37 contains a local file disclosure vulnerability that allows authenticated remote callers to read daemon-host files by opening file:// URLs. Attackers can send an open command with a file:// target through /rpc, then issue snapshot to read any plaintext file readable by the daemon account.
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
- Authenticated network access. An account is needed, so exposure follows who can sign in: customers, partners or staff.
- 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 callstack agent-device 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?
