rich-rst is vulnerable to Path Traversal
75
High Risk
This Affects:
rich-rstTL;DR
The .. raw:: and .. csv-table:: directives' :file: and :url: options, along with the docutils include directive, read the referenced file or fetch the referenced URL with no restriction and include the contents in the output. Rendering reStructuredText from an untrusted source discloses any file the rendering process can read or triggers outbound requests to URLs supplied in that markup. The fix disables these directives by default and confines re-enabled access to the source document's directory.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you render reStructuredText markup from an untrusted source.
