CVE-2026-7024
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 · uneditedA flaw has been found in rawchen sims up to 004f783b1db5ecdfad81c8fdc3b34171211112de. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file sims-master/src/web/servlet/file/DeleteFileServlet.java of the component deleteFileServlet Endpoint. Executing a manipulation of the argument filename can lead to path traversal. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. This product does not use versioning. This is why information about affected and unaffected releases are unavailable. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
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 confidenceA path traversal vulnerability exists in DeleteFileServlet.java of rawchen sims. The filename parameter is not properly sanitized, allowing remote attackers to use '../' sequences to access or delete files outside the intended directory.

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.
-
Identify if rawchen sims is installedSearch for rawchen sims installation directories or check running processes/services for sims-related Java applicationsAffected if rawchen sims software is present in the environment
-
Determine rawchen sims versionCheck application metadata files, pom.xml, or version.properties in the installation directory for version informationAffected if The installed version matches the affected range (if any version-specific range becomes known)
-
Verify DeleteFileServlet is accessibleCheck web.xml or application routing configuration to confirm DeleteFileServlet endpoint is exposed (typically at /DeleteFile or similar path)Affected if DeleteFileServlet is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS endpoint
-
Confirm filename parameter handlingInspect the application's request handling code or proxy logs to verify the filename parameter is accepted without sanitizationAffected if The application processes filename parameter without rejecting '../' sequences
-
Test for path traversal filteringSend a test request with '../' in the filename parameter to an endpoint handling file deletion and observe if the request is blocked or acceptedAffected if Path traversal sequences are accepted or not properly filtered
A user is affected if rawchen sims is installed and the DeleteFileServlet is exposed without proper input validation on the filename parameter.

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 dataImplement strict input validation on the filename parameter to reject path traversal sequences and restrict file operations to an allowed directory whitelist.
