CVE-2026-65698
Void 1.3.4 Path Traversal via AI Agent File-Reading Tools
Description
Void through 1.3.4 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the AI agent file-reading tools that allows network-adjacent attackers to read arbitrary host files outside the open workspace by injecting instructions into content the agent processes. Attackers can supply absolute paths or file:// URIs through the read_file, ls_dir, get_dir_tree, and search_* tools, which lack workspace confinement and bypass the approval gate, enabling silent exfiltration of sensitive files such as SSH private keys or cloud credentials via subsequent tool calls.

Action Type Old Value New Value Added Translation Title: void de voideditor, Description: Void hasta 1.3.4 contiene una vulnerabilidad de salto de ruta en las herramientas de lectura de archivos del agente de IA que permite a los atacantes adyacentes a la red leer archivos de host arbitrarios fuera del espacio de trabajo abierto inyectando instrucciones en el contenido que el agente procesa. Los atacantes pueden proporcionar rutas absolutas o URIs file: // a través de las herramientas read_file, ls_dir, get_dir_tree y search_*, que carecen de confinamiento del espacio de trabajo y eluden la puerta de aprobación, lo que permite la exfiltración silenciosa de archivos sensibles como claves privadas SSH o credenciales de la nube a través de llamadas de herramientas posteriores. -
