CVE-2021-32643: Path Traversal
(updated )
Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. StaticFile.fromUrl
can leak the presence of a directory on a server when the URL
scheme is not file://
, and the URL points to a fetchable resource under its scheme and authority. The function returns F[None]
, indicating no resource, if url.getFile
is a directory, without first checking the scheme or authority of the URL. If a URL connection to the scheme and URL would return a stream, and the path in the URL exists as a directory on the server, the presence of the directory on the server could be inferred from the response. The contents and other metadata about the directory are not exposed.
