Jellyfin: Potential Authenticated path traversal in /ClientLog/Document

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 28.05.2026 Published: 24.06.2026 Updated: 24.06.2026

Jellyfin is an open source self hosted media server. From 10.9.0 until 10.11.10, the POST /ClientLog/Document endpoint accepts the Authorization header's Client and Version fields and uses them unsanitized as components of the on-disk filename when persisting client-uploaded log documents. As a result, any authenticated non-admin user can include ../ sequences in the Client field to cause Jellyfin to write attacker-controlled content to arbitrary paths reachable by the Jellyfin service user, with a forced .log suffix. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.11.10.
