CVE-2023-25341Public exploit

Host file disclosure via unrestricted Vite paths

Published Mar 28, 2024 · Updated Nov 21, 2024

Path traversal in Ladle dev server 2.5.1 and earlier allows remote attackers on the same network to read host files through GET requests. Ladle sets Vite's server.fs.strict option to false while binding the development server to all network interfaces, so /@fs/ paths escape the project root. Any adjacent-network host can retrieve files readable by the account running Ladle, without authentication or user interaction.
