CVE-2025-53927 – MaxKB Directory Traversal (Command Execution)

CVE ID : CVE-2025-53927

Published : July 17, 2025, 2:15 p.m. | 25 minutes ago

Description : MaxKB is an open-source AI assistant for enterprise. Prior to version 2.0.0, the sandbox design rules can be bypassed because MaxKB only restricts the execution permissions of files in a specific directory. Therefore, an attacker can use the `shutil.copy2` method in Python to copy the command they want to execute to the executable directory. This bypasses directory restrictions and reverse shell. Version 2.0.0 fixes the issue.

Severity: 4.6 | MEDIUM
