DescriptionCVE.org

Relative Path Traversal vulnerability in Erlang OTP (stdlib zip module) allows writing files outside the intended extraction directory via a crafted zip archive.

zip:unzip/1,2 and zip:extract/1,2 validate entry paths using zip:check_dir_level/2, which tracks directory depth as a running integer counter: .. decrements it, normal path components increment it. The caller rejects only paths where the final counter value is less than zero. A path such as ../x/y causes the counter to go negative mid-traversal then recover to zero, passing validation while resolving to a location outside the extraction directory when joined with the current working directory via add_cwd.

This vulnerability is associated with program file lib/stdlib/src/zip.erl.

This issue affects OTP from OTP 27.1 before 27.3.4.15, 28.5.0.4, and 29.0.4 corresponding to stdlib from 6.1 before 6.2.2.4, 7.3.0.1, and 8.0.3.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal vulnerability in Erlang OTP's stdlib zip module allows attackers to write files outside the intended extraction directory by exploiting flawed validation of relative paths in zip archives. Affected are OTP versions 27.1 before 27.3.4.15, 28.5.0.4, and 29.0.4. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
User downloads malicious zip
Delivery
User extracts using vulnerable zip function
Exploit
Archive entry with '../' path is processed
Execution
Flawed depth counter validates path
Impact
File written outside extraction directory

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must provide a crafted zip archive that includes entries with relative paths such as `../` to traverse directories. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 base score is 4.8 (Medium) with vector AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:L/SA:L, indicating local attack (user must extract a zip), low complexity, no privileges, and passive user interaction. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malicious zip archive containing entries with path traversal components, e.g., `../malicious.txt`. The victim extracts this archive using an affected version of Erlang OTP's zip module. …
Remediation Apply the vendor-provided patch by upgrading to Erlang OTP version 27.3.4.15, 28.5.0.4, or 29.0.4, depending on the deployed major version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
