CVE-2026-129120: C-Kermit 11.0.506 before 11.1.515 contains a RECEIVE CONFIRM bypass vulnerability that allows malicious Kermit servers to write unrequested files without prompt

CVE-2026-129120 Nov 13, 2026 Source: Vendor

C-Kermit 11.0.506 before 11.1.515 contains a RECEIVE CONFIRM bypass vulnerability that allows malicious Kermit servers to write unrequested files without prompting by abusing recursive GET root computation in ckcfns.c. Attackers can send files such as .ssh/authorized_keys or shell startup files under the current directory, which rq_under_root() accepts silently, enabling persistent access or code execution.
