NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tflint package and not the tflint package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

go-tuf is a Go implementation of The Update Framework (TUF). go-tuf's TAP 4 Multirepo Client uses the map file repository name string (repoName) as a filesystem path component when selecting the local metadata cache directory. Starting in version 2.0.0 and prior to version 2.4.1, if an application accepts a map file from an untrusted source, an attacker can supply a repoName containing traversal (e.g., ../escaped-repo) and cause go-tuf to create directories and write the root metadata file outside the intended LocalMetadataDir cache base, within the running process's filesystem permissions. Version 2.4.1 contains a patch.
