joomla/joomla-cms CVE-2026-40383: path-traversal

Daily Mythos tracker. Newly revealed CVE. New project added. 2102 total disclosed.

Path-traversal findings dominate the Mythos reveal log for 2026-05-28, split across a newly added project and a returning one, while buffer-overflow entries from wolfssl/wolfssl round out the day. Joomla CMS enters the Mythos corpus for the first time, carrying all of the path-traversal identifiers in today’s reveal set. The dashboard stands at 2102 disclosed, 1713 acknowledged, 413 patched, and 445 CVEs/GHSAs published.

joomla/joomla-cms (new project)

Joomla CMS makes its debut in the Mythos ledger with path-traversal across all its opening identifiers:

  • CVE-2026-40383 — path-traversal in joomla/joomla-cms
  • CVE-2026-40384 — path-traversal in joomla/joomla-cms
  • GHSA-hr66-rv65-f5r4 — path-traversal in joomla/joomla-cms
  • GHSA-v8h9-9g8j-w7h4 — path-traversal in joomla/joomla-cms

wolfssl/wolfssl

wolfSSL contributes buffer-overflow CVEs to the day’s total:

  • CVE-2026-5295 — buffer-overflow in wolfssl/wolfssl
  • CVE-2026-6678 — buffer-overflow in wolfssl/wolfssl

Today’s reveal set splits cleanly between path-traversal in a CMS and buffer-overflow in a returning project — distinct bug classes, both well within what Claude Mythos Preview targets. Joomla’s first-time entry is the day’s headline event. The 2102 disclosed and 445 CVEs/GHSAs published on the dashboard put these additions in context as part of a sustained, broad-based research effort.
