DescriptionGitHub Advisory

esm.sh is a no-build content delivery network (CDN) for web development. Prior to Go pseeudoversion 0.0.0-20260116051925-c62ab83c589e, the software has a path traversal vulnerability due to an incomplete fix. path.Clean normalizes a path but does not prevent absolute paths in a malicious tar file. Commit https://github.com/esm-dev/esm.sh/commit/9d77b88c320733ff6689d938d85d246a3af9af16, corresponding to pseudoversion 0.0.0-20260116051925-c62ab83c589e, fixes this issue.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in esm.sh CDN prior to version 0.0.0-20260116051925-c62ab83c589e allows unauthenticated remote attackers to write arbitrary files to the server through malicious tar archives, bypassing incomplete path sanitization. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability. The issue stems from improper validation of absolute paths in tar file entries, enabling potential code execution or service disruption on affected systems.
