Logpoint: Relative Path Traversal

CVE-2025-54317 is a high-severity relative path traversal vulnerability in Logpoint, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.4 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with administrator privileges, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. The record lists version 7.6.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating Logpoint to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.72% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 54% of scored CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update Logpoint to 7.6.0 or a later version.
  2. Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.

Official description

An issue was discovered in Logpoint before 7.6.0. An attacker with operator privileges can exploit a path traversal vulnerability when creating a Layout Template, which can lead to remote code execution (RCE).

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Relative Path Traversal

The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize sequences such as.. that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use an application firewall that can detect attacks against this weakness. It can be beneficial in cases in which the code cannot be fixed (because it is controlled by a third party), as an emergency prevention measure while more comprehensive software assurance measures are applied, or to provide defense in depth.
