How to fix?

Upgrade fast-uri to version 2.4.8, 3.1.9, 4.2.3 or higher.

Overview

fast-uri is a Dependency-free RFC 3986 URI toolbox

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Path Equivalence via the serialize() / normalize() functions, which incorrectly applied RFC 3986 remove_dot_segments to relative-path references. That algorithm is defined only for merged target paths, not for relative references themselves, so normalizing a relative path such as a/../b produced /b (root-relative), x/.. produced /, and ../x produced x. An attacker who can supply a relative URI reference can cause it to resolve to a different resource than intended after normalization, enabling path-traversal-style target substitution.
