    Issue
    We have identified and addressed a security issue in the Nuclei project that affected users utilizing Nuclei as Go code (SDK) running custom templates. This issue did not affect CLI users. The problem was related to sanitization issues with payloads loading in sandbox mode. Details In the previous versions, there was a potential risk with payloads loading in sandbox mode. The issue occurred due to relative paths not being converted to absolute paths before doing the check for sandbox flag allowing arbitrary files to be read on the filesystem in certain cases when using Nuclei from Go SDK implementation. This issue has been fixed in the latest release, v2.9.9. We have also enabled sandbox by default for filesystem loading. This can be optionally disabled if required.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 2.9.9 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
