CVE-2026-3051 - Vulnerability Details

- DataLinkDC dinky Project Name GitRepository.java getProjectDir path traversal

Description

A vulnerability has been found in DataLinkDC dinky up to 1.2.5. The affected element is the function getProjectDir of the file dinky-admin/src/main/java/org/dinky/utils/GitRepository.java of the component Project Name Handler. Such manipulation of the argument projectName leads to path traversal. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Analysis

Impact

The flaw lies in the getProjectDir function of DataLinkDC dinky’s Project Name Handler. By manipulating the projectName argument, an attacker can insert path traversal sequences that allow the function to resolve directories outside the intended project root, potentially exposing arbitrary files on the host. This is a classic directory traversal vulnerability identified as CWE‑22. The bug can be triggered remotely via requests to the application.

Affected Systems

DataLinkDC dinky versions up to and including 1.2.5 are affected. The issue resides in the file dinky-admin/src/main/java/org/dinky/utils/GitRepository.java within the Project Name Handler component.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score of 5.3 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of 0.06507% reflects a very low likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, it is inferred that no additional privileges or specific environment conditions are required to exploit the flaw; a remote attacker can simply send a crafted projectName value to trigger the traversal.

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

Upgrade DataLinkDC dinky to a version newer than 1.2.5 where the path traversal bug is fixed
If an immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict external access to the application by firewall rules or network segmentation
Add server‑side validation to ensure projectName does not contain directory traversal characters such as '..' or slashes, and enforce a whitelist of allowed project names
