Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Wildog/flask-file-server versions through 2020-02-20
Description
The issue allows absolute path traversal due to the unsafe use of the Flask
send file function. This enables potential access to files outside the intended directory.Recommendations
For versions through 2020-02-20, consider restricting access to the
send file function until a safer implementation is available. As a temporary workaround, review and limit file access permissions to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploitability
