CVE-2026-46336: Manyfold: Authenticated Path Traversal via File Rename
Manyfold is an open source, self-hosted web application for managing a collection of 3d models, particularly focused on 3d printing. From 0.96.0 until 0.140.0, authenticated users can rename uploaded files with path traversal sequences because app/models/model_file.rb uses the user-controlled filename in File.join(model.path, filename) without sufficient sanitization, allowing files to be moved or written outside the configured library directory. This issue is fixed in version 0.140.0.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
A logged-in Manyfold user could rename an uploaded 3D model file so the application moves or writes it outside the intended library directory. That creates a business risk of unauthorized file changes on self-hosted Manyfold systems running vulnerable versions.
Executive priority
Prioritize patching internet-accessible or multi-user Manyfold instances. The issue is high severity, but current source evidence does not confirm active exploitation.
Technical view
CVE-2026-46336 is an authenticated path traversal flaw in Manyfold versions 0.96.0 through before 0.140.0. The vulnerable file rename path used user-controlled filenames in File.join(model.path, filename) without sufficient sanitization. CVSS 3.1 is 7.1, with high integrity impact and low availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to self-hosted Manyfold deployments running versions >= 0.96.0 and < 0.140.0. An attacker needs an authenticated account with relevant file interaction capability.
Exploitation context
The provided sources do not show CISA KEV listing or confirmed active exploitation. Exploitation requires authentication and no user interaction, and could affect files outside the configured library directory within application permissions.
Researcher notes
Focus review on rename handling in app/models/model_file.rb and the v0.140.0 fix. The risk is path traversal through filename handling, mapped to CWE-22 and CWE-73, with integrity as the main impact.
Mitigation direction
Upgrade Manyfold to version 0.140.0 or later.
Review the vendor advisory, pull request, and release notes before remediation.
Restrict untrusted user access until patched.
Inspect library-adjacent paths for unexpected file moves or writes.
Validation and detection
Inventory Manyfold deployments and record exact running versions.
Confirm no production instance runs >= 0.96.0 and < 0.140.0.
Review audit logs for suspicious file rename activity.
Verify upgraded instances report version 0.140.0 or later.

These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
