Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Snipe-IT, the Packagist package snipe/snipe-it before 8.5.0, has a directory traversal flaw in the displaySig action of ActionlogController. The filename from the HTTP route is joined into a file path without sanitization. An authenticated attacker can use this to read arbitrary files that the web server process can access. The fix is to upgrade snipe/snipe-it to 8.5.0 or later.
