Arbitrary file read via unconfined body path
Published Sep 4, 2026 · Updated Sep 5, 2026
Path traversal in Bruno through 4.1.0 allows remote attackers to read local files when a crafted collection request is run. The request preparer joins an untrusted body:file value to the collection directory without checking confinement, then reads the resolved path into the HTTP body. Execution of an attacker-supplied collection is required, and readable host files are sent to its attacker-controlled endpoint.
