  1. Published12 May 2026

Description

The nexent v1.7.5.2 backend service contains an unauthorized arbitrary storage file deletion vulnerability in its file management API. The DELETE /storage/{object_name:path} endpoint lacks authentication, authorization, and input validation mechanisms. Unauthenticated remote attackers can send crafted requests with a user-controlled object_name path parameter to delete arbitrary files from the underlying MinIO storage system. Successful exploitation leads to data loss and denial of service.
