Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization due to an over-grant in the filesystem permission lookup, where the radix tree comparison for a wildcard --allow-fs-read or --allow-fs-write rule stops early when the requested path is shorter than the grant's prefix and treats the path as a match. An attacker running code under --permission can read or write paths the grant does not cover, for example reading /etc/passwd under --allow-fs-read=/etc/passwd.*. Only wildcard grants that sit directly under the root of the permission tree, such as the only grant for that scope, are affected.
