Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
public versions prior to 0.1.3
Description
The issue arises from a lack of validation of the
filePath, allowing a malicious user to read the content of any file with a known path due to a Path Traversal vulnerability. This is caused by insufficient file path sanitization, which could lead to any file the parent process has access to on the server being read by a malicious user.Recommendations
Update to version 0.1.3 or later.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive files until the issue is resolved.
