What is CVE-2026-2817?

An insecure directory issue in VMware's Spring Data Geode allows snapshot imports to extract archives into predictable and permissive directories within the system temp location. This vulnerability can be exploited on shared hosting environments, where a local user with basic privileges gains access to another user's extracted snapshot contents, thereby exposing sensitive cache data. It is crucial to apply appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access to these directories.

Affected Version(s)

Spring Data Gemfire 1.7.0.RELEASE <= 2.2.13.RELEASE

Spring Data Geode 2.0.0.RELEASE <= 2.7.18
