The Erlang OTP ssh_sftpd module contains a path traversal vulnerability in the is_within_root/2 function that uses string prefix matching instead of proper path component validation to verify if accessed paths are within the configured root directory. An authenticated SFTP user can exploit this to access sibling directories sharing a common name prefix with the root directory (for example, if root is /home/user1, accessing /home/user10 or /home/user1_backup would succeed when it should fail). This vulnerability affects OTP versions 17.0 through 28.4.1 with corresponding SSH versions 3.0.1 through 5.5.1, with no confirmed active exploitation in the wild (KEV status not indicated as actively exploited) but with a moderate CVSS score of 5.3 reflecting the requirement for prior authentication.

Arbitrary file write in Black (the Python code formatter) before 26.3.1 lets an attacker who controls the value of the --python-cell-magics option place cache files at attacker-chosen filesystem locations via path traversal. The unsanitized option value is embedded directly into the computed cache filename, so a value such as '../../../tmp/pwned' escapes the cache directory and overwrites or creates files elsewhere. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, EPSS is very low (0.02%), and the issue is not in CISA KEV; practical risk is confined to environments that feed untrusted input into Black's command-line options.

### Summary Workspace boundary enforcement currently has three related bypass risks. This issue tracks fixing all three in one pull request. ### Details #### R1 - Dangling Symlink Component Bypass - What happens: Path validation can miss dangling symlink components during traversal checks. - Why it matters: A symlink that is unresolved at validation time can later resolve to an external location. - Impact: Read and write operations may escape workspace boundaries. - Affected area: src/security/path.rs (check_symlink_escape). #### R2 - TOCTOU Between Validation and Use - What happens: The path is validated first, then used later for filesystem operations. - Why it matters: A concurrent filesystem change can swap path components after validation but before open/write. - Impact: Race-based workspace escape is possible. - Affected area: Filesystem and file-consuming tools that call validate_path_in_workspace before I/O. #### R3 - Hardlink Alias Bypass - What happens: A file inside workspace can be a hardlink to an inode outside the intended workspace trust boundary. - Why it matters: Prefix and symlink checks can pass while data access still mutates or reads external content. - Impact: Policy bypass for read/write operations. - Affected area: Any tool that reads or writes via validated paths. #### Risk Matrix | ID | Risk | Severity | Likelihood | Impact | |---|---|---|---|---| | R1 | Dangling symlink component bypass | High | Medium | Workspace boundary escape for read/write | | R2 | Validate/use TOCTOU race | High | Medium | Race-based boundary escape during file I/O | | R3 | Hardlink alias bypass | Medium | Low-Medium | External inode read/write through in-workspace path | ### PoC #### R1 - Dangling symlink component bypass 1. Create a symlink inside workspace pointing to a missing target. 2. Validate a path traversing that symlink. 3. Create the target directory outside workspace after validation. 4. Perform file operation and observe potential boundary escape if not fail-closed. #### R2 - TOCTOU between validation and use 1. Validate a candidate in-workspace path. 2. Before open/write, replace an intermediate component with a link to external location. 3. Continue with the file operation. 4. Observe boundary escape if operation trusts only stale validation result. #### R3 - Hardlink alias bypass 1. Place a hardlink inside workspace that points to an external inode. 2. Validate the in-workspace hardlink path. 3. Read or write through this path. 4. Observe external inode access through a path that appears in-scope. ### Impacts Unauthorized cross path boundary ## Credit [@zpbrent](https://github.com/zpbrent) ### Patch [f50c17e11ae3e2d40c96730abac41974ef2ee2a8](https://github.com/qhkm/zeptoclaw/commit/f50c17e11ae3e2d40c96730abac41974ef2ee2a8)
