CVE-2026-48768
CWE-22Published: June 18, 2026· Updated: Jun 22, 2026
Official Description
TypeBot is a chatbot builder tool. In versions 3.16.1 and earlier, POST /api/blocks/file-input/v3/generate-upload-url is unauthenticated and uses unsanitized fileName input to construct public/ S3 object keys, while issuing presigned PUT URLs that do not bind Content-Type. As a result, any anonymous visitor to a published bot with a file input can upload attacker-controlled HTML, SVG, or JS to attacker-chosen subpaths, including other tenants’ publicly served result paths, enabling arbitrary content hosting and potential stored XSS on the storage origin. ../ traversal is blocked by S3/MinIO canonicalization (signature mismatch), but forward-slash path injection is exploitable. This issue has been fixed in version 3.17.0.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-48768 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 9.3.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
