- Impact This vulnerability effects the built-in afire servestatic extension allowing paths containing //.... to bypass the previous path sanitation and request files in higher directories that should not be accessible. Patches The issue has been fixed in afire 1.1.0. If you can, just update to the newest version of afire. Workarounds If you can't update afire you can simply disallow paths containing /.. with the following middleware. Make sure this is the last middleware added to the server so it runs first, stopping the bad requests.
