Technical details

A path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) exists in the 'goshs' web server within the POST multipart upload handler located in 'httpserver/updown.go'. While the filename itself is sanitized, the target directory is derived directly from the unsanitized 'req.URL.Path'. By using URL-encoded traversal sequences (e.g., %2e%2e/) in the upload path, an unauthenticated remote attacker can escape the intended webroot. This allows for arbitrary file writes to any directory on the host filesystem that the server process has permissions to access. The issue is fixed in version 2.0.0-beta.3.
