CVE-2024-24569

Summary

CVE-2024-24569 is a vulnerability affecting the Pixee Java Code Security Toolkit, specifically the `ZipSecurity#isBelowCurrentDirectory` function. This issue allows for a partial-path traversal bypass when the application uses the toolkit version 1.1.1 or lower, employs `ZipSecurity` as a protection against path traversal, and includes an exploit path. While the control restricts attackers from moving beyond the application path into higher-level directories (such as /etc/), it permits navigation into sibling paths. For instance, if the running path is /my/app/path, an attacker could potentially access /my/app/path-something-else. This vulnerability is resolved in version 1.1.2.
