This vulnerability is classified as Path Traversal (CWE-22), which allows attackers to access files and directories outside the intended path. Vite is a frontend tooling framework for JavaScript. Prior to versions 7.1.5, 7.0.7, 6.3.6, and 5.4.20, files starting with the same name with the public directory were served bypassing the server.fs settings. Only apps that explicitly expose the Vite dev server to the network (using --host or server.host config option), use the public directory feature (enabled by default), and have a symlink in the public directory are affected. Versions 7.1.5, 7.0.7, 6.3.6, and 5.4.20 fix the issue. Affected products include: Vitejs Vite.
