SGA1000: Relative Path Traversal

CVE-2026-82768 is a high-severity relative path traversal vulnerability in SGA1000 from Contec, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 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 1.02 as the first without the flaw, so updating SGA1000 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.49% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

Official description

Path traversal vulnerability exists in SGA1000. If this vulnerability is exploited, arbitrary files on the server may be viewed and/or altered by an attacker who can access the product via FTP.

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.
