Loading vulnerability details...
In Apache Commons IO before 2.7, When invoking the method FileNameUtils.normalize with an improper input string, like "//../foo", or "\..\foo", the result would be the same value, thus possibly providing access to files in the parent directory, but not further above (thus "limited" path traversal), if the calling code would use the result to construct a path value.

This high-severity vulnerability could allow attackers to gain unauthorized access, execute arbitrary code, or compromise data integrity. Prompt remediation is strongly recommended.
Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days · more likely than 95.7% of all CVEs.
Apply security patches to version 2.7 immediately
Isolate affected systems from untrusted networks until patching is complete
Implement enhanced monitoring for exploitation attempts and unusual behavior
