Описание
A flaw was found in the Erlang OTP stdlib zip module. The zip:unzip and zip:extract functions, which handle archive extraction, are vulnerable to a relative path traversal attack. A remote attacker could craft a malicious zip archive containing specially formed entry names. When processed, this could allow the attacker to write arbitrary files outside the intended extraction directory, potentially leading to remote code execution or data corruption.

Relative Path Traversal vulnerability in Erlang OTP (stdlib zip module) allows writing files outside the intended extraction directory via a crafted zip archive. zip:unzip/1,2 and zip:extract/1,2 validate entry paths using zip:check_dir_level/2, which tracks directory depth as a running integer counter: .. decrements it, normal path components increment it. The caller rejects only paths where the final counter value is less than zero. A path such as ../x/y causes the counter to go negative mid-traversal then recover to zero, passing validation while resolving to a location outside the extraction directory when joined with the current working directory via add_cwd. This vulnerability is associated with program file lib/stdlib/src/zip.erl. This issue affects OTP from OTP 27.1 before OTP 29.0.4, OTP 28.5.0.4 and OTP 27.3.4.15, corresponding to stdlib from 6.1 before 8.0.3, 7.3.0.1 and 6.2.2.4.
