Description

CVE-2026-106108 is a path traversal vulnerability in the Quasar Framework's @quasar/app-vite SSG page definitions. Versions from 3.1.0 up to but not including 3.3.0 allow crafted dir and filename values to escape the intended build distribution directory, potentially creating files or directories outside the output tree with the build user's permissions. Exploitation requires that the build process uses untrusted external content for configuration or page definitions. The issue is fixed in version 3.3.0.

Technical Analysis

The vulnerability arises because the getSsgPages() function in @quasar/app-vite returns page definitions with dir and filename values that are joined to the build.distDir path without verifying that the final resolved path remains within the intended directory. This improper limitation of pathname allows parent directory traversal or symlink exploitation to write files outside the designated output directory during the build process. Since application configuration and SSG page definitions are trusted by default, exploitation requires the build to incorporate external or less-trusted content. The renderer's no-overwrite behavior protects existing files, limiting some impact. The vulnerability affects Quasar Framework versions >=2.22.0 <2.23.3 and >=3.1.0 <3.3.0 and is resolved in 3.3.0.

Potential Impact

An attacker who can influence the build process with external or less-trusted content may cause the build to write new HTML files or directories outside the intended distribution directory. These files are created with the build user's permissions. Existing files are protected from overwrite by the renderer. This could lead to unauthorized file creation outside the expected output tree, potentially impacting system integrity depending on the build environment and permissions.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade to Quasar Framework version 3.3.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Since this is a build-time vulnerability, ensure that all inputs to the build process, especially application configuration and SSG page definitions, are from trusted sources. No other vendor advisory or patch links are provided, so check the official Quasar Framework release notes for confirmation.
