Summary
### Impact Laravel Translation Manager didn't check the locale name, which allowed directory traversal when exporting files. The content would be a PHP file returning an array of translations, but this could lead to unexpected results, like denial of service. Access to the Laravel Translation Manager is required, because a new locale would have to be added and published. ### Patches Version 0.6.2 fixes this issue. ### Workarounds Only allow trusted admins to publish/edit translations. ### References https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-translation-manager/pull/417 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-translation-manager * Email me (see Github profile) ### Credits Found and reported by [Natalia Trojanowska](https://www.linkedin.com/in/trojanowskanatalia/)
