{"id":"CVE-2022-36007","aliases":["GHSA-4mmh-5vw7-rgvj"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2022-36007","summary":"Partial Path Traversal in com.github.jlangch:venice","details":"### Impact\nA partial path traversal issue exists within the functions `load-file` and `load-resource`. These functions can be limited to load files from a list of load paths.\n\nAssuming Venice has been configured with the load paths: `[ \"/Users/foo/resources\" ]` \n\nWhen passing **relative** paths to these two vulnerable functions everything is fine:\n`(load-resource \"test.png\")`   => loads the file \"/Users/foo/resources/test.png\"\n`(load-resource \"../resources-alt/test.png\")`   => rejected, outside the load path\n\nWhen passing **absolute** paths to these two vulnerable functions Venice may return files outside the configured load paths:\n`(load-resource \"/Users/foo/resources/test.png\")`   => loads the file \"/Users/foo/resources/test.png\"\n`(load-resource \"/Users/foo/resources-alt/test.png\")`   => loads the file \"/Users/foo/resources-alt/test.png\" !!!\nThe latter call suffers from the _Partial Path Traversal_ vulnerability.\n\nThis issue’s scope is limited to absolute paths whose name prefix matches a load path. E.g. for a load-path `\"/Users/foo/resources\"`, the actor can cause loading a resource also from `\"/Users/foo/resources-alt\"`, but not from `\"/Users/foo/images\"`.\n\nVersions of Venice before and including v1.10.16 are affected by this issue.\n\n### Patches\nUpgrade to Venice >= 1.10.17, if you are on a version < 1.10.17\n\n### Workarounds\nIf you cannot upgrade the library, you can control the functions that can be used in Venice with a sandbox. If it is appropriate, the functions `load-file` and `load-resource` can be blacklisted in the sandbox.\n\n### References\n  * [PR](https://github.com/jlangch/venice/pull/4/commits/c942c73136333bc493050910f171a48e6f575b23)\n \n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Open an issue in [GitHub Venice](https://github.com/jlangch/venice)\n* Email us at [juerg.ch](mailto:juerg.ch@ggaweb.ch)\n\n### Credits\n\nI want to publicly recognize the contribution of [Jonathan Leitschuh](https://github.com/JLLeitschuh) for reporting this issue.","published":"2022-08-14T00:25:10Z","modified":"2026-10-28T10:27:23.319192035Z","cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"com.github.jlangch:venice","fixedVersion":"1.10.17"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice/commit/215ae91bb964013b0a2d70718a692832d561ae0a","label":"jlangch/venice@215ae91"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice/releases/tag/v1.10.17"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/36xxx/CVE-2022-36007.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice/security/advisories/GHSA-4mmh-5vw7-rgvj"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-36007"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice/commit/215ae91bb964013b0a2d70718a692832d561ae0a"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice/commit/c942c73136333bc493050910f171a48e6f575b23"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/jlangch/venice"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-10-28T10:27:23.319192035Z"}}
