> DESCRIPTION

Vector is a high-performance observability data pipeline. From 0.10.0 until 0.57.0, the file sink renders its templated path from event fields and opens the result without confining it to an intended directory. When an untrusted source supplies an event field used by the path template, the value can contain an absolute path or parent-directory traversal, causing Vector to create parent directories and create or overwrite files outside the intended location with the Vector process privileges. The resulting file write can modify sensitive files and can lead to code execution when a scheduled task, authorization file, or subsequently executed script is targeted. This issue is fixed in version 0.57.0.

> CWE DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS

CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') - The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. | CWE-73: External Control of File Name or Path - The product allows user input to control or influence paths or file names that are used in filesystem operations.

> OSV (GOOGLE OPEN SOURCE VULNERABILITIES)

Vector: Arbitrary file write in the file sink via templated path (path traversal).
