Satel Netco Design: Relative Path Traversal

CVE-2026-101024 is a high-severity relative path traversal vulnerability in Satel Netco Design from Satel, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version v2.1.7 as the first without the flaw, so updating Satel Netco Design to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.44% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

Satel Netco Design versions prior to v2.1.7 contains a relative path traversal vulnerability in its data export functionality. An authenticated user with Viewer privileges could write attacker influenced content to file system locations accessible to the application service. Successful exploitation could result in unauthorized file creation or modification and, under certain conditions, arbitrary code execution.

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.
