go-ipfs is an open-source golang implementation of IPFS which is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer filesystem. In go-ipfs before version 0.8.0-rc1, it is possible for path traversal to occur with DAGs containing relative paths during retrieval. This can cause files to be overwritten, or written to incorrect output directories. The issue can only occur when a get is done on an affected DAG. This is fixed in version 0.8.0-rc1.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - go-ipfs is an open-source golang implementation of IPFS which is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer
    filesystem. In go-ipfs before version 0.8.0-rc1, it is possible for path traversal to occur with DAGs
    containing relative paths during retrieval. This can cause files to be overwritten, or written to
    incorrect output directories. The issue can only occur when a get is done on an affected DAG. This is
    fixed in version 0.8.0-rc1. (CVE-2020-26279)

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - go-ipfs is an open-source golang implementation of IPFS which is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer
    filesystem. In go-ipfs before version 0.8.0-rc1, it is possible for path traversal to occur with DAGs

  - go-ipfs is an open-source golang implementation of IPFS which is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer
    filesystem. In go-ipfs before version 0.8.0, control characters are not escaped from console output. This
    can result in hiding input from the user which could result in the user taking an unknown, malicious
    action. This is fixed in version 0.8.0. (CVE-2020-26283)
