Type:

CWE-22 Path Traversal

Description

Armeria is an open source microservice framework. In affected versions an attacker can access an Armeria server&#39;s local file system beyond its restricted directory by sending an HTTP request whose path contains `%2F` (encoded `/`), such as `/files/..%2Fsecrets.txt`, bypassing Armeria&#39;s path validation logic. Armeria 1.13.4 or above contains the hardened path validation logic that handles `%2F` properly. This vulnerability can be worked around by inserting a decorator that performs an additional validation on the request path.
