Overview

CVE-2026-26032 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 15, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.4 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.4, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

The PackagerResolver of Apache Ivy is able to download online

artifacts and to (re)package them in a format defined by a

packager.xml file. This repackaging is done by an Ant script, which is

stored in a subdirectory of the configured "buildRoot" directory. This

subdirectory is calculated based on modules coordinates, like the

organisation, name or version.

If one of the coordinates contains "../" sequences - which are valid

characters for Ivy coordinates in general- it is possible to break out

of the configured "buildRoot" directory where other files can be

overwritten.

In order to exploit this vulnerability an attacker needs to have

access to a packager repository and add or modify the coordinates in

ivy.xml files to have such "../" sequences.

Users of Apache Ivy 2.0.0 to 2.5.3 (inclusive) should upgrade to Ivy 2.6.0.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
