AI-suggested
Upgrade node-tmp to version 0.2.6 or later, where this path traversal vulnerability is fixed. Applications should avoid passing untrusted or unsanitized data to the prefix, postfix, or dir options of tmp's file and directory creation functions. Patch status is not explicitly stated in the vendor advisory, but the fix is included in version 0.2.6 as per the description.
Description
tmp is a temporary file and directory creator for node.js. Prior to 0.2.6, the tmp npm package contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows escaping the intended temporary directory when untrusted data flows into the prefix, postfix, or dir options. By embedding traversal sequences (e.g., ../) or path separators in these parameters, attackers can cause files to be created outside the configured temporary base directory at attacker-controlled locations with the privileges of the running process. This vulnerability affects applications that pass user-controlled data to tmp's file/directory creation functions without proper input sanitization. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.2.6.
