CVE-2026-34371 | LibreChat Affected by Arbitrary File Write via `execute_code` Artifact Filename Traversal

Exp

LibreChat is a ChatGPT clone with additional features. Prior to 0.8.4, LibreChat trusts the name field returned by the execute_code sandbox when persisting code-generated artifacts. On deployments using the default local file strategy, a malicious artifact filename containing traversal sequences (for example, ../../../../../app/client/dist/poc.txt) is concatenated into the server-side destination path and written with fs.writeFileSync() without sanitization. This gives any user who can trigger execute_code an arbitrary file write primitive as the LibreChat server user. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.4.

6.3 3.1 MEDIUM
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:H)
Even with access, the exploit needs extra luck, timing, or a fussy environment to actually work.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:N)
Doesn’t really leak secrets in a meaningful way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
