### Workarounds
_Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_
### References
Latest 1.x version: 1.6.6
#### Arbitrary class path resource access 1
When sharing a *File System* directory as in:
``` java
assets("/static/**", Paths.get("static"));
```
The class path is also searched for the file (`org.jooby.handlers.AssetHandler.loader`):
[jooby/AssetHandler.java at 1.x · jooby-project/jooby · GitHub](https://github.com/jooby-project/jooby/blob/1.x/jooby/src/main/java/org/jooby/handlers/AssetHandler.java)
``` java
private static Loader loader(final Path basedir, final ClassLoader classloader) {
if (Files.exists(basedir)) {
return name -> {
Path path = basedir.resolve(name).normalize();
if (Files.exists(path) && path.startsWith(basedir)) {
try {
return path.toUri().toURL();
} catch (MalformedURLException x) {
// shh
}
}
return classloader.getResource(name);
};
}
return classloader::getResource;
}
```
If we send `/static/WEB-INF/web.xml` it will fail to load it from the file system but will go into `classloader.getResource(name)` where name equals `/WEB-INF/web.xml` so will succeed and return the requested file. This way we can get any configuration file or even the application class files
If assets are configured for a certain extension we can still bypass it. eg:
```java
assets("/static/**/*.js", Paths.get("static"));
```
We can send:
```
http://localhost:8080/static/io/yiss/App.class.js
```
#### Arbitrary class path resource access 2
This vulnerability also affects assets configured to access resources from the root of the class path. eg:
```java
assets("/static/**");
```
In this case we can traverse `static` by sending:
```
http://localhost:8080/static/..%252fio/yiss/App.class
```
