CVE-2026-59149: @Mockoon/commons-server: Path traversal in templated `filePath` lets a request escape the served directory (prefix-only base check)
A FILE response whose filePath embeds request data (e.g. "/srv/public/{{queryParam 'name'}}", the documented way to let the client pick a file) is confined by getSafeFilePath with resolvedPath.startsWith(staticBaseDir). That prefix test has no path-separator boundary, so a ../-escaped path whose absolute form string-prefixes the base directory passes. An unauthenticated client reads files from sibling paths outside the served directory.
