CVE-2026-58414
Published:July 20, 2026
Updated:August 04, 2026
Network-AI is a TypeScript/Node.js multi-agent orchestrator. Prior to version 5.12.2, "EnvironmentManager.backup()" recursively collects files using "_collectBackupFiles()". "_collectBackupFiles()" uses "statSync(full)", which follows symlinks. If "data/<env>" contains a symlink to a directory outside the environment root, backup recursion follows the symlink and copies external files into "data/<env>/.backups/<backupId>/". An attacker who can place a symlink under the environment data directory can cause backup operations to disclose files outside the environment root into backup artifacts. The issue is fixed in v5.12.2. "_collectBackupFiles()" now uses "lstatSync" instead of "statSync" and skips any entry where "isSymbolicLink()" is true. Symlinks are never traversed, so "backup()" can no longer follow a link out of the environment root and copy external files into a backup artifact.
