CVE-2026-125113
The XRootD project provides a high-performance, fault-tolerant, and secure solution for handling large amounts of data distributed across multiple storage resources. Prior to version 5.9.2, XRootD's rpCheck() function in src/XrdXrootd/XrdXrootdXeq.cc rejects a parent-directory component only when two dots are followed by a slash and does not reject a terminal two-dot component. An unauthenticated attacker can append /.. to an exported path in xrdfs ls or an HTTP PROPFIND request, bypass the all.export directory scope, and cause directory and filename enumeration in the parent directory under oss.localroot. The demonstrated vector does not permit file download or disclose file contents. This issue is fixed in version 5.9.2.

Template for a VuXML entry
Check the version numbers before you commit this entry. Some ports share an entry in the CVE database with another port, such as sqlite2 and sqlite3. The version shown here may then be one that never existed for this port.
Ranges per package from the CVE rows that match this port, in pkg notation with the port's epoch and revision, every bound checked with pkg; one range per epoch the port actually had. make newentry in security/vuxml creates the vid.
