CVE-2022-41722 – Path traversal on Windows in path/filepath

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-41722

A path traversal vulnerability exists in filepath.Clean on Windows. On Windows, the filepath.Clean function could transform an invalid path such as "a/../c:/b" into the valid path "c:\b". This transformation of a relative (if invalid) path into an absolute path could enable a directory traversal attack. After fix, the filepath.Clean function transforms this path into the relative (but still invalid) path ". • https://go.dev/cl/468123 https://go.dev/issue/57274 https://groups.google.com/g/golang-announce/c/V0aBFqaFs_E https://pkg.go.dev/vuln/GO-2023-1568 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-41722 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2203008 • CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') •
