A path traversal and arbitrary file write vulnerability exists in versions of Atril prior to 1.26.2. This vulnerability is capable of writing arbitrary files anywhere on the filesystem to which the user opening a crafted document has access. The only limitation is that this vulnerability cannot be exploited to overwrite existing files, but that doesn't stop an attacker from achieving Remote Command Execution on the target system. Version 1.26.2 of Atril contains a patch for this vulnerability.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-22","CWE-24","CWE-25","CWE-27"],"references":["https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/commit/e70b21c815418a1e6ebedf6d8d31b8477c03ba50","https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/releases/tag/v1.26.2","https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/security/advisories/GHSA-6mf6-mxpc-jc37","https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2024/06/msg00003.html","https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/commit/e70b21c815418a1e6ebedf6d8d31b8477c03ba50"],"products":["mate-desktop:atril"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:44:57.175229480+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-52076","score":0.01085,"percentile":0.65258,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
