Vite: `server.fs.deny` bypassed with queries

Overview

Summary

The contents of files that are specified by server.fs.deny can be returned to the browser. This is the same as https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-v2wj-q39q-566r.

Impact

Only apps that match the following conditions are affected:

• explicitly exposes the Vite dev server to the network (using --host or server.host config option)
• the sensitive file exists in the allowed directories specified by server.fs.allow
• the sensitive file is denied with a pattern that matches a file by server.fs.deny

Details

On the Vite dev server, files that should be blocked by server.fs.deny (e.g., .env, *.crt) can be retrieved with HTTP 200 responses when query parameters such as ?raw, ?import&raw, or ?import&url&inline are appended.

For the fix for https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-rq7h-c2jc-7f22, v6.4.4 back-ported https://github.com/vitejs/vite/pull/20410. But while that PR requires https://github.com/vitejs/vite/pull/22160 for https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-v2wj-q39q-566r, https://github.com/vitejs/vite/pull/22160 wasn't back-ported together causing v6 vulnerable to https://github.com/vitejs/vite/security/advisories/GHSA-v2wj-q39q-566r.

Affected packages

• vite = 6.4.4

Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

• vite 6.4.5
