Description

An issue was discovered in Flask-CORS (aka CORS Middleware for Flask) before 3.0.9. It allows ../ directory traversal to access private resources because resource matching does not ensure that pathnames are in a canonical format.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

v < 3.0.9
