CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The compliance-trestle tooling platform is vulnerable due to improper validation of file paths in the `-o/--output` argument of the `trestle author jinja` command, allowing attackers to write files to arbitrary locations outside the intended workspace. This high-severity flaw can lead to unauthorized file manipulation and potential system compromise. Organizations using versions prior to 3.12.3 or 4.0.3 should prioritize updating to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description

compliance-trestle is a tooling platform for managing compliance as code. Prior to versions 3.12.2 and 4.0.3, the `-o/--output` argument in `trestle author jinja` allows writing files outside the intended workspace. The application does not properly validate, `../`, `..\`, or absolute paths. This allows arbitrary file write to attacker-controlled locations. Versions 3.12.3 and 4.0.3 patch the issue.
