Technical details

A 'Zip Slip' path traversal vulnerability exists in the `unzipDirectory()` function within `packages/api/src/shell/unzipDirectory.js`. The function fails to validate that extracted file paths remain within the intended output directory, allowing a malicious ZIP archive containing `../` sequences to write files to arbitrary locations. In default Docker deployments, the application runs as root and uses a 'none' authentication provider that issues JWT tokens without credentials. An attacker can exploit this by uploading a crafted ZIP and triggering the unzip endpoint to achieve remote code execution (e.g., by writing to `/etc/cron.d/`). The issue is fixed in version 7.1.9.
