achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE).

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Directly prevents LFI by validating and sanitizing the Invoice Type input parameter to block path traversal and arbitrary file reads.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

Remediates the specific flaw in Sales.php::getInvoice() through timely patching or updates to eliminate the vulnerability.

AC-3 Access Enforcement partial match
prevent

Enforces access control policies to restrict low-privileged users from reading arbitrary files, mitigating exploitation even if input flaws exist.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2026-26746 is a Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in OpenSourcePOS version 3.4.1, specifically within the Sales.php::getInvoice() function. By manipulating the Invoice Type configuration, an attacker can read arbitrary files on the affected web server. This issue, published on 2026-02-20, carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and is linked to CWE-434.

The vulnerability can be exploited over the network by an attacker with low privileges, such as a logged-in user, requiring low complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary file reads, and when chained with the application's file upload functionality, enables remote code execution (RCE) with high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Mitigation details and advisories are documented in the GitHub repository at https://github.com/hungnqdz/CVE-2026-26746/blob/main/CVE-2026-26746.md, while the OpenSourcePOS project repository at https://github.com/opensourcepos/opensourcepos may provide patches or updates.
