Root Cause Analysis
While no specific code is available, directory traversal vulnerabilities in Node.js
servers typically stem from: 1) Unsanitized user input being used directly in filesystem operations 2) Lack of path normalization before file access. The vulnerability pattern matches classic cases where user-supplied paths (from req.url
) are joined with a base directory without proper validation. The high confidence comes from the consistent vulnerability description across multiple sources and the well-understood nature of this vulnerability pattern in web servers.
