CVE-2026-8384
CWE-647Published: July 14, 2026· Updated: Jul 14, 2026
Official Description
In Eclipse Jetty, an HTTP URI of this form:
/public;/../admin/secret.txt
results in an unresolved path of:
/public/../admin/secret.txt
instead of the expected:
/admin/secret.txt
Jetty itself is not affected, as it will not serve the secret.txt file because it will not pass the alias checker (only resolved resources are served).
However, web applications that rely on resolved paths being provided by Jetty may be confused when receiving an unresolved path.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-8384 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.
