Summary

The tidewave package from tidewave-ai, from 0.8.0 before 0.9.2, lets a web page read filesystem paths of the application through its Tidewave configuration at /tidewave/connect or the rendered toolbar. Neither response checks the Host header, so a page that rebinds its own domain to the loopback address can read the paths with a same-origin request. An attacker can learn the local username and project layout from the exposed paths, and this flaw is tracked as CWE-497.

Description from the CNA

An attacker can read the name of filesystem paths of your application present via Tidewave configuration via /tidewave/connect or via the rendered toolbar. Neither response checks the Host header. A web page that rebinds its own domain to the loopback address can therefore read the tag with a same-origin request, which carries no Origin header. The paths usually reveal the local username and the project layout. This issue affects tidewave: from 0.8.0 before 0.9.2.
