Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires local access to the Kubernetes cluster (AV:L) with at least low-privilege tenant credentials (PR:L). The high attack complexity (AC:H) reflects two specific prerequisites: first, the attacker must be able to pre-create or otherwise control a sibling directory on the shared volume whose name begins with the exact string prefix of the fetcher or builder's configured safe directory path; second, the attacker must be able to submit crafted filename values to the builder's Handler or Clean endpoint, or the fetcher's Fetch, Upload, or SpecializeHandler endpoint. Exploitation is limited to the confidentiality and integrity of files accessible within the shared volume scope - it does not grant code execution or cluster-wide privilege escalation. Deployments where tenant workloads are fully isolated from the shared builder/fetcher volume, or where tenants cannot create arbitrary directories on that volume, are not exploitable in practice.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.6 (Low) accurately reflects limited real-world risk. The attack vector is local (AV:L), attack complexity is high (AC:H), and privileges required are low (PR:L), meaning an attacker must already have tenant-level access within the same Kubernetes cluster and must also be able to pre-create or influence a sibling directory on the shared volume whose name begins with the safe directory's prefix. Scope is unchanged (S:U), and confidentiality and integrity impacts are both Low (C:L/I:L/A:N). No EPSS score was provided in the intelligence data, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV and no public proof-of-concept has been identified, reinforcing the low-priority classification. The high attack complexity signal is consistent with the description's requirement for pre-condition control over a specific shared volume path. This is a genuine but narrowly scoped issue: multi-tenant Fission deployments where tenants can influence shared volume layout are the realistic threat model; single-tenant or tightly controlled environments face negligible risk.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A malicious tenant on a shared Fission deployment creates a directory named /fission-packages-evil (sharing the /fission-packages prefix with the legitimate safe directory) on the shared volume, then submits a build or fetch request with a crafted SrcPkgFilename such as ../fission-packages-evil/payload. The legacy SanitizeFilePath call resolves and accepts this path because strings.HasPrefix passes, allowing the builder's Clean handler or the fetcher's Fetch handler to read from or write to the attacker-controlled sibling directory outside the intended safe boundary. No public proof-of-concept code has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 10, 2026

Path traversal in Fission's SanitizeFilePath function (pkg/utils/utils.go) allows a low-privileged tenant to read or write files outside an intended safe directory on a shared Kubernetes volume. Versions prior to 1.25.0 validated directory confinement using strings.HasPrefix, which performs a purely lexical string comparison: a sibling path such as /packages-extra/evil incorrectly passes a check for the safe directory /packages because it satisfies the string prefix condition without a directory-separator boundary. The builder's Clean handler and the fetcher's Fetch and Upload handlers were all affected. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: v1.25.0. Upgrade Fission to version 1.25.0 or later, available at https://github.com/fission/fission/releases/tag/v1.25.0. The fix eliminates the vulnerable SanitizeFilePath helper entirely, replacing it with os.OpenRoot-based wrappers (RootJoin, RootStat, RootWriteFile, RootMkdirAll, RootRename) that use Linux's openat-family syscalls to structurally confine all path operations. For deployments that cannot immediately upgrade, a compensating control is to enforce strict Kubernetes RBAC and admission policies that prevent tenants from creating arbitrary directories or PersistentVolumeClaims on shared volumes used by the builder and fetcher - this directly removes the attacker's prerequisite of controlling a sibling directory. Note that this workaround requires careful policy scoping and does not fix the underlying code defect. Full remediation details are in PRs #3445 and #3446 at https://github.com/fission/fission/pull/3445 and https://github.com/fission/fission/pull/3446.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Fission is a Kubernetes-native serverless framework (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:fission:fission:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) that uses shared volumes between its builder and fetcher components to stage function packages. The root cause is CWE-41 (Improper Resolution of Path Equivalence): the retired SanitizeFilePath helper called Go's strings.HasPrefix(path, safedir) to enforce directory confinement, but this is a string-level check that does not honor filesystem path semantics. Because strings.HasPrefix does not require the matched prefix to end at a path separator, any sibling directory whose name shares the safe directory's string prefix bypasses the check entirely. The fix, introduced in PRs #3445 and #3446, replaces all call sites with a family of os.OpenRoot-based helpers (RootJoin, RootStat, RootWriteFile, RootMkdirAll, RootRename) that confine every filesystem operation to an explicitly opened directory file descriptor, making escape structurally impossible rather than textually validated.

DescriptionNVD

Fission is an open-source, Kubernetes-native serverless framework that simplifies the deployment of functions and applications on Kubernetes. Prior to version 1.25.0, SanitizeFilePath in pkg/utils/utils.go validated that a path stayed under a safe directory by calling strings.HasPrefix(path, safedir). This is a lexical check, not a directory boundary check: /packages-extra/evil starts with /packages, so it passed. The function did not enforce a path-separator boundary, so any sibling directory whose name began with the safe-directory string was accepted. Callers included the builder's Clean handler (pkg/builder/builder.go:208) and the fetcher's Fetch / Upload handlers (pkg/fetcher/fetcher.go). A tenant who could pre-create or control a sibling directory under the fetcher / builder's shared volume could induce a write or read outside the intended safe directory. This issue has been patched in version 1.25.0.
