The vulnerability arises from the load_credentials method, where user-controlled input for realm_name and zuliprc_content is used to construct file paths and write file contents. This allows attackers to overwrite or create arbitrary files if a zuliprc- directory already exists in the temporary directory.","published":"2025-03-20T10:15:38.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T08:21:24.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"security@huntr.dev","cvss":{"version":"3.0","score":9.1,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-29"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00952,"percentile":0.61058,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.95%).
