fix: sanitize preview IDs to prevent path traversal and XSS#11
Merged
Conversation
… (security) Preview routes accepted unsanitized :id params from the URL, allowing path traversal (../../) to read/write/delete .json files outside the previews directory, and reflected XSS via the 404 page. Added assertSinglePathSegment() validation to all four :id route handlers and escapeHtml() to the 404 response. Both guards already existed in src/utils/security.ts. Bump to v0.62.10.
assertSinglePathSegment already blocks traversal, but CodeQL cannot trace that validation. Adding resolvePathWithinRoot as a second guard in previewPath() itself makes the path restriction visible to static analysis.
