ETK-2026-3444Zero's internal tracking ID, independent of the CVE number.
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
SurrealDB deployments using filesystem-backed buckets before version 4.0.0 are affected. An attacker able to perform bucket operations against a bucket containing a pre-existing symlink may access or alter files outside that bucket's intended directory.
mitigation
Upgrade SurrealDB to version 4.0.0 or later. Until upgraded, restrict bucket operations and remove or prevent symbolic links within filesystem bucket directories.
fixed in 4.0.0
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
