- Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in gleam-lang
gleam allows a malicious package publisher to delete a directory outside the project's build directory
when a developer builds a project. A Hex package release's metadata carries an app field with the
release's OTP application name. Gleam reads this field from the hex.pm release API when it downloads
dependencies and uses it as the package's build directory name without validating it (hex_manifest_package
in compiler-cli/src/dependencies.rs, ProjectPaths::build_directory_for_package). When a dependency fails
to compile, Gleam deletes that directory with remove_dir_all. hex.pm didn't restrict the field to a
directory name before 2026-10-12, so a publisher could set it to a value such as ../../../../target or an
absolute path. When a project depends on such a release directly or transitively and the release fails to
compile, gleam build, gleam check, gleam run, gleam test or gleam export deletes the directory the name
resolves to. For a pure Gleam package no publisher code runs. This issue affects gleam: from 0.32.4 before
1.19.2. (CVE-2026-103061)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
