Summary
CVE-2026-84149 is a critical information disclosure vulnerability affecting the Manacle Technologies Multi-tenant ERP System, caused by a publicly accessible .git directory on the application’s web server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can browse or download the exposed repository metadata and reconstruct portions of the application’s source code. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS score of 9.2 (Critical) and requires no authentication or user interaction to exploit.
Technical details
- Root cause: The
.gitversion-control directory used during development/deployment was left accessible under the web root, rather than being excluded from the publicly served application files. - Trigger conditions: No authentication, privileges, or user interaction are required — an attacker simply needs network access to the application’s web server and knowledge (or discovery) of the
.gitpath. - Attack vector: Network-based (remote, unauthenticated HTTP requests to retrieve
.gitobjects, logs, and configuration files). - Impact: Disclosure of repository metadata and version-control objects can allow an attacker to reconstruct application source code, potentially revealing embedded credentials, API keys, internal logic, and other sensitive artifacts that facilitate further attacks against the ERP platform.
- Classification: CWE-527 – Exposure of Version-Control Repository to an Unauthorized Control Sphere.
- This issue was disclosed alongside two related vulnerabilities in the same product — an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload leading to remote code execution (CVE-2026-84147) and an Insecure Direct Object Reference in an API endpoint exposing other users’ data (CVE-2026-84148) — indicating broader security hardening gaps in the platform’s deployment and access controls.
Affected software
- Manacle Technologies Multi-tenant ERP System (specific affected version not disclosed by the vendor or CERT-In advisory at time of publication; default product status is listed as unaffected, with the impacted deployment version marked "affected" in the CVE record).
Severity
- CVSS Score: 9.2 (Critical)
- CVSS v4.0 Vector:
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N - Attack Vector: Network | Attack Complexity: Low | Privileges Required: None | User Interaction: None | Confidentiality Impact: High
Mitigation and recommended actions
- Immediate: No vendor patch version has been published yet; affected organizations should contact Manacle Technologies directly to obtain a fixed release or remediation guidance.
- Workarounds / network mitigations (until patched):
- Remove or restrict web server access to the
.gitdirectory (and any other version-control artifacts) on all internet-facing ERP deployments. - Configure the web server (e.g., via
.htaccess, nginxlocationblocks, or equivalent) to deny all external requests to paths containing.git. - Audit deployment pipelines to ensure version-control directories are never copied into production web roots.
- Rotate any credentials, API keys, or secrets that may have been present in the exposed repository history.
- Given the related RCE (CVE-2026-84147) and IDOR (CVE-2026-84148) issues disclosed for this same product, review file upload validation and API authorization controls as part of a broader remediation effort.
- Remove or restrict web server access to the
