CVE-2026-3179

A path traversal vulnerability was found in the FTP Backup on the ADM.

Published Feb 25, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 9.2 Critical EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The FTP Backup on the ADM does not properly sanitize filenames received from the FTP server when parsing directory listings. A malicious server or MITM attacker can craft filenames containing path traversal sequences, causing the client to write files outside the intended backup directory. A path traversal vulnerability may allow an attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system and potentially achieve privilege escalation or remote code execution.
Affected products and versions include: from ADM 4.1.0 through ADM 4.3.3.ROF1 as well as from ADM 5.0.0 through ADM 5.1.2.RE51.
