From e57a0a857d8c76ea608526d9ed9c7793b7f92aec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Leitschuh Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2022 03:03:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] vuln-fix: Partial Path Traversal Vulnerability This fixes a partial path traversal vulnerability. Replaces `dir.getCanonicalPath().startsWith(parent.getCanonicalPath())`, which is vulnerable to partial path traversal attacks, with the more secure `dir.getCanonicalFile().toPath().startsWith(parent.getCanonicalFile().toPath())`. To demonstrate this vulnerability, consider `"/usr/outnot".startsWith("/usr/out")`. The check is bypassed although `/outnot` is not under the `/out` directory. It's important to understand that the terminating slash may be removed when using various `String` representations of the `File` object. For example, on Linux, `println(new File("/var"))` will print `/var`, but `println(new File("/var", "/")` will print `/var/`; however, `println(new File("/var", "/").getCanonicalPath())` will print `/var`.
