Summary

A path traversal vulnerability in Heym before version 0.0.21 allows authenticated users to write attacker-controlled files to arbitrary locations by supplying a crafted filename with traversal sequences. The flaw exists in the file upload endpoint where the filename parameter is not properly validated.

Risk Assessment

Attackers can bypass path restrictions and write, read, or delete files outside the intended storage directory, potentially leading to server compromise or data exfiltration.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade Heym to version 0.0.21 or later, which includes a fix for this vulnerability. Additionally, implement server-side filename validation.
