Answer in brief
CVE-2026-85634 records a High severity (CVSS 8.8) vulnerability in Wildfly-core: wildfly-core: deployer rbac role privilege escalation via path traversal in deployment name. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Red Hat/jboss-eap-7/eap74-els-openjdk11-openshift-rhel8 (generic), Red Hat/jboss-eap-7/eap74-els-openjdk17-openshift-rhel8 (generic), Red Hat/jboss-eap-7/eap74-els-openjdk8-openshift-rhel8 (generic), Red Hat/wildfly-server (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 8.8. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

A flaw was found in the ContentRepositoryImpl.copyExplodedContent function of the wildfly-core library, which is used by WildFly and JBoss EAP to manage server deployments. The issue occurs when the library processes an unsanitized deployment name. Due to a missing containment check, an attacker with the Deployer RBAC role can use path traversal sequences to access files outside the restricted deployment directory. This can allow the attacker to delete arbitrary directories or create files with arbitrary content, leading to a full privilege escalation to the management SuperUser role.
