CVE-2026-49742
Last modified
CVE-2026-49742 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.1/10 on the CVSS scale. Backend users with file download permissions were able to download files from the fallback storage of the file abstraction layer (FAL) via the Media Module. Since the fallback storage resolves paths relative to the server's document root, this could expose sensitive files such as log files. EPSS estimates a 0.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
