Severity: moderate 

Affected versions:

- Apache MINA SSHD (org.apache.sshd:sshd-scp) through 2.18.0
- Apache MINA SSHD (org.apache.sshd:sshd-scp) 3.0.0-M1 through 3.0.0-M4

Description:

Path traversal in the sshd-scp component of Apache MINA SSHD. Apache MINA SSHD 
is a Java library for client-side and server-side SSH.




The implementation of receiving files or directories via SCP did not validate 
filenames in SCP "C" or "D" commands. A malicious sender could send filenames 
containing paths, resulting in files to be written in attacker-controlled 
places.




The issue affects only

  *  applications that use no longer supported Apache MINA SSHD versions < 
2.0.0 and use the SCP functions to receive files,
  *  or applications using sshd-scp in Apache MINA SSHD >= 2.0.0 to receive 
files.




Applications using Apache MINA SSHD >= 2.0.0 not using sshd-scp are not 
affected.




The issue is fixed in Apache MINA 2.19.0 and 3.0.0-M5. Affected applications 
are advised to upgrade to these versions.
