CVE-2026-7819 is a symbolic-link path traversal vulnerability in pgAdmin 4 File Manager before version 9.15. The vulnerable check_access_permission logic used os.path.abspath, which normalizes parent-directory traversal but does not resolve symbolic links. A later file-write operation follows symbolic links, allowing an authenticated user to place a symlink in an allowed storage directory that resolves outside that directory and cause pgAdmin to write through it. Version 9.15 validates source and destination paths using os.path.realpath and prevents following a symlink at the final target component during upload-target opening.
