@fastify/static vulnerable to route guard bypass via path traversal
### Impact `@fastify/static` is vulnerable to a bypass of route-based middleware and guards via non-leading `..` and `%2E%2E` path segments. `find-my-way` does not normalize `..` when matching routes, so a request such as `/foo/../deep/secret.txt` matches the static plugin's catch-all instead of the guarded `/deep/*`. The `getPathnameForSend` helper introduced by the fix for [GHSA-x428-ghpx-8j92](https://github.com/fastify/fastify-static/security/advisories/GHSA-x428-ghpx-8j92) only guards against the `%2F` variant; `..` and `%2E%2E` survive the `decodeURI` + `encodeURI` round-trip and are then collapsed away by `@fastify/send`'s `path.normalize` before its own traversal guard runs. Applications that rely on route-based middleware or guards to protect files served by `@fastify/static` can be bypassed with non-leading dot-dot path segments. ### Patches Upgrade to `@fastify/static` 10.1.1. ### Workarounds Do not use route-based middlewares or guards to protect files served by `@fastify/static`.

@fastify/static up to and including version 10.1.0 fails to reject dot-dot path segments in request pathnames before the file-resolution stage. This is a bypass of the earlier fix… | ||||
