Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Http4s http4s-server versions before 0.23.35 and from 1.0.0-M1 before 1.0.0-M47 are vulnerable, with the fix in 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47. ResourceService and WebjarService decode percent-encoded path separators (%2F, and %5C on Windows) after their filter, so a remote attacker can escape the configured base and read resources that should not be public. Upgrade to 0.23.35 or 1.0.0-M47 or later; alternatively, deploy as a fat jar with no filesystem directories on the classpath, or place a proxy in front that rejects or normalizes %2F and %5C.
