Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

Affected versions of `list-n-stream` resolve relative file paths, resulting in a directory traversal vulnerability. A malicious actor can use this vulnerability to access files outside of the intended directory root, which may result in the disclosure of private files on the vulnerable system. **Example request:** ```http GET /../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1 host:foo ``` ## Recommendation Update to version 0.0.11 or later.
