Echo: multiple commons-io packages: security update to 2.7

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 458276

Description

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

 - In Apache Commons IO before 2.7, When invoking the method FileNameUtils.normalize with an improper input
 string, like "//../foo", or "\\..\foo", the result would be the same value, thus possibly providing access
 to files in the parent directory, but not further above (thus "limited" path traversal), if the calling
 code would use the result to construct a path value. (CVE-2021-29425)

Solution

Update the commons-io library and its related packages to version 2.7 or later.
