CVE-2026-45569 roxy-wi CVE debrief
CVE-2026-45569 is a path traversal vulnerability in Roxy-WI, a web interface for managing Haproxy, Nginx, Apache, and Keepalived servers. The vulnerability affects versions 8.2.6.4 and prior. The issue arises from a flawed validation check in the `app/modules/config/config.py` file, which fails to properly block path traversal payloads. Specifically, the check uses tuple membership instead of substring containment, allowing payloads like `../../etc/passwd` to bypass security restrictions. At the time of publication, no publicly available patches are known.
