vite-plugin-static-copy files not included in src are possible to access with a crafted request

CVE-2025-57753GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (vite-plugin-static-copy 3.1.2, 2.3.2), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Summary Files not included in src was possible to access with a crafted request. Impact Only apps explicitly exposing the Vite dev server to the network (using --host or server.host config option) are affected. Arbitrary files can be disclosed by exploiting this vulnerability. Details Consider the following configuration in used by vite.config.ts: The files under the ./public/images is only expected to be served. Abusing this vulnerability, an attacker can access arbitrary files on the filesystem. PoC I've attached a demo app to showcase the bug. Run it with npm run dev and issue the following HTTP request OR Observe that the /etc/passwd file is included in the response. <img width="1289" height="449" alt="Screenshot 2025-08-16 at 10 27 11 PM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4de12612-7b86-44d7-a403-c76f12832e37" /

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2025-57753

Advisory: vite-plugin-static-copy files not included in `src` are possible to access with a crafted request
IDs: CVE-2025-57753, GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2025-57753 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:37 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.0)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: vite-plugin-static-copy 3.1.2, 2.3.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- npm vite-plugin-static-copy: affected >= 3.0.0, <= 3.1.1; >= 0.4.3, <= 2.3.1; fixed in 3.1.2, 2.3.2

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `npm ls vite-plugin-static-copy --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on vite-plugin-static-copy.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968 (OSV record GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968 lists affected ranges: npm vite-plugin-static-copy >=3.0.0 =0.4.3 <2.3.2 (fixed))
- Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-pp7p-q8fx-2968 lists affected ranges: npm vite-plugin-static-copy >=3.0.0 =0.4.3 <=2.3.1)
