{"id":"CVE-2026-59816","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2026-59816","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T03:29:53.737Z","title":"The server then proxies the request to other transcription-backend endpoints and can return their responses, potentially exposing internal administrative, health, or configuration data.","description":"Joplin is an open source note-taking and to-do application that organises notes and lists into notebooks. Prior to 3.7.7, the GET /api/transcribe/:id and POST /api/transcribe/:id handlers in packages/server/src/routes/api/transcribe.ts on Joplin Server instances with TRANSCRIBE_ENABLED=true pass the decoded id directly into transcription backend URLs. An authenticated user can place URL-encoded slash and parent-directory segments in the job ID, causing parseSubPath() to decode a path that escapes the intended /transcribe/ prefix. The server then proxies the request to other transcription-backend endpoints and can return their responses, potentially exposing internal administrative, health, or configuration data. This issue is fixed in version 3.7.7.","published":"2026-09-21T21:17:06.000Z","lastModified":"2026-09-23T18:30:43.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"security-advisories@github.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":4.3,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-22"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00355,"percentile":0.28964,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-09-22","score":0.00269,"percentile":0.19293}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.36%).
