CVE-2026-48789

AnythingLLM: Windows path containment bypass in document folder route

Published Jun 24, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
AnythingLLM is an application that turns pieces of content into context that any LLM can use as references during chatting. Prior to 1.13.0, on Windows, the document folder listing route can accept an encoded absolute Windows path that resolves outside the intended documents directory. The shared path containment helper rejects POSIX-style "../" traversal but does not reject Windows-style parent paths returned by path.relative(), such as "..". This vulnerability is fixed in 1.13.0.
