Summary

Coder versions from 2.28.0 before 2.29.22, 2.30.0 before 2.34.13, 2.35.0 before 2.35.10, 2.36.0 before 2.36.8, 2.37.0 before 2.37.5, and 2.38.0 before 2.38.1 are affected. The AI Gateway passthrough router forwards percent-encoded dot segments upstream without rejecting them, a path traversal flaw (CWE-22). An authenticated user can reach unintended provider endpoints under allowlisted prefixes, using the deployment's centrally managed provider key.
