CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability allows context-dependent attackers to exploit a relative path traversal in the file manifest cleanup component of projen, potentially enabling them to recursively delete files and directories outside the intended project directory. This poses a significant risk to environments where projen is used, particularly for those with writable access, as it could lead to data loss or system compromise. Users of projen should prioritize upgrading to version 0.101.37 to mitigate this high-severity issue.

Original NVD Description
Relative path traversal in the generated file manifest cleanup component in projen before 0.101.37 might allow context-dependent attackers to recursively delete files and directories outside the project directory that are writable by the environment running projen, via crafted entries in the version-controlled generated file manifest that is consumed during project synthesis. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 0.101.37. The corrected containment check is automatically applied by the projen runtime next time you run it.
