Authenticated restricted-directory escape via gofsutil path traversal
Published Oct 11, 2022 · Updated May 16, 2025
Path traversal in Dell Container Storage Modules 1.9 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to access paths outside restricted directories. Dell identifies gofsutil as the affected library but has not published the function, input, or failed path-validation operation. Low-privileged access is required; the documented consequence is unintended access beyond the restricted directory, while arbitrary command execution is not established for this CVE.
