Summary: Lightwell Security Advisory: logback-classic 1.5.38.rhlw-00006
Details: Red Hat Lightwell has released ch.qos.logback:logback-classic 1.5.38.rhlw-00006 with a backported security fix. CVE-2026-104721: Path-traversal vulnerability in QOS.CH Sarl Logback-classic on Java (logback-classic module) allows path-traversal vulnerability. More specifically, an MDC-based discriminator value flows unsanitized into a nested FileAppender path, letting an attacker who influences that MDC value (e.g. via an HTTP header) create and append log files outside the intended directory. This issue affects Logback-classic: from 0.9.14 through 1.6.4. This vulnerability is similar to CVE-2026-19880 but involves other attack techniques. This patched artifact is a drop-in replacement for ch.qos.logback:logback-classic 1.5.38 from Maven Central.
