{"id":"CVE-2026-111053","kind":"vulnerability","aliases":["CVE-2026-111053"],"related":[],"title":"FOSSBilling: unauthenticated endpoint reveals whether server files exist","description":"FOSSBilling is an open source billing and client-management platform. From 0.1.0 until 0.8.7, the unauthenticated api/guest/system/template_exists endpoint permits path traversal because templateExists uses Path::join on the attacker-controlled file parameter without rejecting .. sequences or verifying that the resolved path remains inside the active theme directory. The trigger is an unauthenticated request to guest/system/template_exists containing traversal sequences in the file parameter. An attacker can submit traversal sequences in the file parameter and observe the returned boolean to determine whether arbitrary files or directories exist on the server. The oracle does not disclose file contents. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.7.","summary":"FOSSBilling's guest template_exists endpoint joins an attacker-supplied file path without stripping traversal sequences, so anyone can probe the server. The endpoint returns only a true or false answer, so an attacker learns whether arbitrary files or directories exist but cannot read their contents.","severity":"medium","cvss":6.9,"epss":null,"exploited":false,"exploited_at":null,"products":[],"ecosystems":[],"tags":["billing","fossbilling","package","php","self-hosted"],"not_affected_if":["auth-required","managed-hosting"],"how_to_check":"- Check the installed FOSSBilling version in the admin panel or in the project's version file; affected versions are `0.1.0` through `0.8.7` inclusive.\n- Look for requests to `api/guest/system/template_exists` containing `..` in web server access logs.","fix":"- Upgrade FOSSBilling to `0.8.7` or later.","status":"open","published_at":"2026-10-19T16:17:03+00:00","first_seen_at":"2026-10-23T21:57:18+00:00","triaged_at":"2026-10-25T03:40:46+00:00","updated_at":"2026-10-25T03:40:46+00:00","category":"package","confidence":0.7,"triage":{"at":"2026-10-25T03:40:46Z","model":"claude-haiku-5-5","output":{"fix":"- Upgrade FOSSBilling to `0.8.7` or later.","reach":"internet","title":"FOSSBilling: unauthenticated endpoint reveals whether server files exist","impact":"low","summary":"FOSSBilling's guest template_exists endpoint joins an attacker-supplied file path without stripping traversal sequences, so anyone can probe the server.
