      <title>CVE-2024-29180 — webpack-dev-middleware Path Traversal vulnerability</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2024-29180</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; webpack-dev-middleware, webpack.js webpack-dev-middleware&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prior to versions 7.1.0, 6.1.2, and 5.3.4, the webpack-dev-middleware development middleware for devpack does not validate the supplied URL address sufficiently before returning the local file. It is possible to access any file on the developer&amp;#39;s machine. The middleware can either work with the physical filesystem when reading the files or it can use a virtualized in-memory `memfs` filesystem. If `writeToDisk` configuration option is set to `true`, the physical filesystem is used. The `getFilenameFromUrl` method is used to parse URL and build the local file path. The public path prefix is stripped from the URL, and the `unsecaped` path suffix is appended to the `outputPath`. As the URL is not unescaped and normalized automatically before calling the midlleware, it is possible to use `%2e` and `%2f` sequences to perform path traversal attack.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Developers using `webpack-dev-server` or `webpack-dev-middleware` are affected by the issue. When the project is started, an attacker might access any file on the developer&amp;#39;s machine and exfiltrate the content. If the development server is listening on a public IP address (or `0.0.0.0`), an attacker on the local network can access the local files without any interaction from the victim (direct connection to the port). If the server allows access from third-party domains, an attacker can send a malicious link to the victim. When visited, the client side script can connect to the local server and exfiltrate the local files. Starting with…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
