CVE-2026-46345 | BDVDB-2026-360502 Detail

oscal-compasscompliance-trestle

Description#

compliance-trestle is a tooling platform for managing compliance as code. Prior to versions 3.12.2 and 4.0.3, the `-o/--output` argument in `trestle author jinja` allows writing files outside the intended workspace. The application does not properly validate, `../`, `..\`, or absolute paths. This allows arbitrary file write to attacker-controlled locations. Versions 3.12.3 and 4.0.3 patch the issue.

Impact#

Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact high, integrity impact high, availability impact high. Attack vector: local.
