CVE-2026-30828 is a high-severity Path Traversal (CWE-22) vulnerability in Wallosapp Wallos. Its CVSS base score is 8.7 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 42th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-30828 is a vulnerability in Wallos, an open-source, self-hostable personal subscription tracker. In versions prior to 4.6.2, the "url" parameter can be manipulated to retrieve arbitrary local system files. This flaw is associated with CWE-22 (Path Traversal), CWE-29 (Trusted Path), and CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery), earning a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).
Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity, no required privileges, and no user interaction. Unauthenticated adversaries simply need to send a crafted request with a malicious "url" parameter value, enabling them to disclose sensitive local files on the Wallos server, such as configuration files or other system data.
The vulnerability has been patched in Wallos version 4.6.2. The GitHub security advisory (GHSA-p7qj-669r-grvc), release notes for v4.6.2, and the patching commit (e8a513591dbbf885966e2ef55c38622785b9060d) detail the fix; administrators should upgrade immediately to mitigate the risk.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces the intended directory access authorizations that path traversal would otherwise bypass.
Information flow enforcement can restrict which destinations the server is allowed to contact on behalf of users.
Input validation directly neutralizes special path elements before pathname construction occurs.
Least privilege reduces the impact of any unauthorized file access obtained via traversal.
Boundary protection limits the network reach of server-initiated requests even if SSRF occurs.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and path sanitization that block this traversal vector.
Runtime monitoring of web applications and services can detect anomalous outbound requests indicative of SSRF.
Vulnerability identification processes can discover and record SSRF flaws in web applications.
Network segmentation and egress controls can limit the damage from successful SSRF requests.
Patching/maintenance can remediate known path-traversal flaws in deployed software (partial prevention of exploitability) but does nothing to stop the coding defect from being introduced in the first place.
PR.AA-05 defines and reviews access policies but does not address code-level pathname neutralization, so neither direction prevents CWE-22.

Security testing in development catches path traversal via static/dynamic analysis.
Operational threat data describing SSRF campaigns can be used to tighten outbound-request allow-lists and detection rules before attackers exploit them.
Secure SDLC mandates input validation and path sanitization that directly prevent path traversal.
Application security requirements include rules for safe file handling and canonicalization.
Secure architecture principles require least-privilege file access and directory isolation.
Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe path construction and mandate safe APIs.
