Arbitrary file disclosure via unsanitized request paths
Published Jan 25, 2023 · Updated Apr 1, 2025
Path traversal in Beeno Tung serve-lite before 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to read files outside the configured web root. The HTTP request handler passes req.url to path.join without neutralizing dot-dot segments, allowing the resolved path to escape rootDir. No authentication or user interaction is required; disclosure is limited to files readable by the server process.
