CVE-2026-8464
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 · uneditedGolem OEE MES is vulnerable to an unauthenticated path traversal flaw. This vulnerability allows an attacker in the same local network to read arbitrary files from the server's operating system by manipulating HTTP request paths. This issue has been fixed in version 11.6.0
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 confidenceGolem OEE MES contains an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers on the same local network to manipulate HTTP request paths and read arbitrary files from the server's operating system. This is a classic directory traversal flaw where input validation on HTTP request paths is insufficient, enabling attackers to escape the web root 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.
-
Determine installed Golem OEE MES versionAccess the application admin interface and navigate to the About or System Information page. If unavailable, check the installation directory for version files or examine startup logs for version strings.Affected if The installed version is lower than 11.6.0
-
Confirm web interface network exposureReview network configuration or firewall settings to determine if the MES web service is listening on network interfaces other than localhost/127.0.0.1. Check which IP addresses the web server is bound to.Affected if The web interface is bound to IP addresses accessible by other devices on the local network
-
Inspect HTTP access logs for traversal attemptsLocate and review the web server access logs for the MES application. Search for patterns containing '../' sequences or absolute file paths in request URLs.Affected if Logs contain requests with directory traversal patterns (such as ../../) targeting system files outside the web root
A system is affected if it runs Golem OEE MES version lower than 11.6.0 with the web interface exposed to the local network, allowing unauthenticated path traversal attacks.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
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.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade Golem OEE MES to version 11.6.0 or later. Additionally, network segmentation should be reviewed to limit exposure to only trusted devices on the local network, as the CVSS vector indicates a network-adjacent attack vector.
11.6.0
- 1. Identify the current version of Golem OEE MES installation by checking the system configuration or product documentation.
- 2. Create a complete backup of the Golem OEE MES database, configuration files, and any custom settings.
- 3. Download Golem OEE MES version 11.6.0 from the official vendor or trusted distribution channel.
- 4. Follow the vendor's documented upgrade procedure to install version 11.6.0, ensuring all prerequisites are met.
- 5. After upgrading, verify that the path traversal vulnerability is resolved by attempting a controlled test of the affected HTTP endpoint (or have the vendor confirm remediation).
- 6. Restart the Golem OEE MES service and verify normal operation.
