Technical details
A path traversal vulnerability exists in the dSort archive extraction component where improper validation of archive member names fails to restrict file paths to a designated directory. A remote attacker can exploit this by submitting a dSort job with crafted archive member names containing path traversal sequences (e.g., "../"), resulting in arbitrary file creation, overwrite, or code execution. The vulnerability requires the ability to submit dSort jobs to an AIStore deployment.
