Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: gaoxiaotingtingting (affected versions not specified)

Description: The issue concerns a directory traversal vulnerability in an HTTP server, allowing an attacker to access the filesystem by manipulating the URL with "../".

A malicious actor can exploit this vulnerability by making a specially crafted request, such as a GET request to access files outside the intended directory root.

Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. It is recommended that the package is only used for local development, and if the functionality is needed for production, a different package is used instead.
