CVE-2026-9129

A path traversal flaw in Altium Enterprise Server Viewer allows an authenticated user to read any file on the server’s local filesystem. By supplying a URL‑encoded absolute path, the storage root is ignored, exposing sensitive configuration files. This can lead to full server compromise.
