CVE-2026-35254
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedVulnerability in the Oracle OCI CLI product of Oracle Open Source Projects. The supported versions that is affected is 3.77. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access to compromise Oracle OCI CLI. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in Oracle OCI CLI allowing users to place imported files outside the intended directory.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidencePath traversal vulnerability in Oracle OCI CLI version 3.77's file import functionality. An unauthenticated attacker with network access can exploit insufficient path validation to place imported files outside the intended directory, potentially overwriting system files or writing to sensitive locations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify OCI CLI installation and versionRun 'oci --version' or 'oci version' to retrieve the installed Oracle OCI CLI versionAffected if The installed version is exactly 3.77
-
Confirm file import feature presenceRun 'oci os object bulk-upload --help' or look for import-related commands under 'oci os' namespace to verify the file import functionality existsAffected if The OCI CLI has the os object import/bulk-upload functionality available
-
Inspect import operation configurationReview any scripts, automation, or configurations that use 'oci os object import' or bulk import commands, focusing on parameters that specify destination directoriesAffected if Import operations specify a target bucket or directory without additional path validation controls
-
Check for unauthorized file modificationsReview system or application directories for files with recent modification timestamps that may have been created outside intended OCI bucket locationsAffected if Unexpected files appear in system directories or locations not configured as OCI bucket destinations
A user is affected if Oracle OCI CLI version 3.77 is installed and the file import functionality is in use, as the path traversal flaw allows files to be placed outside the intended directory.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade to a patched version of Oracle OCI CLI once released. Until then, avoid using the import functionality with untrusted or external sources, and monitor for any suspicious file placement.
