Summary

An issue was discovered on Accellion FTA devices before FTA_9_12_180. Because a regular expression (intended to match local https URLs) lacks an initial ^ character, courier/web/1000@/wmProgressval.html allows SSRF attacks with a file:///etc/passwd#https:// URL pattern.

Exploit prediction

1.90% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 79% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
