CVE-2026-27199

Werkzeug is a comprehensive WSGI web application library. Versions 3.1.5 and below, the safe_join function allows Windows device names as filenames if preceded by other path segments. This was previously reported as GHSA-hgf8-39gv-g3f2, but the added filtering failed to account for the fact that safe_join accepts paths with multiple segments, such as example/NUL. The function send_from_directory uses safe_join to safely serve files at user-specified paths under a directory. If the application is running on Windows, and the requested path ends with a special device name, the file will be opened successfully, but reading will hang indefinitely. This issue has been fixed in version 3.1.6.

Werkzeug's `safe_join` function allows Windows device names as filenames if when preceded by other path segments. This was previously reported as https://github.com/pallets/werkzeug/security/advisories/GHSA-hgf8-39gv-g3f2, but the added filtering failed to account for the fact that `safe_join` accepts paths with multiple segments, such as `example/NUL`. `send_from_directory` uses `safe_join` to safely serve files at user-specified paths under a directory. If the application is running on Windows, and the requested path ends with a special device name, the file will be opened successfully, but reading will hang indefinitely.

Werkzeug es una completa biblioteca de aplicaciones web WSGI. Las versiones 3.1.5 e inferiores, la función safe_join permite nombres de dispositivos de Windows como nombres de archivo si van precedidos por otros segmentos de ruta. Esto fue reportado previamente como GHSA-hgf8-39gv-g3f2, pero el filtrado añadido no tuvo en cuenta el hecho de que safe_join acepta rutas con múltiples segmentos, como example/NUL. La función send_from_directory utiliza safe_join para servir archivos de forma segura en rutas especificadas por el usuario bajo un directorio. Si la aplicación se está ejecutando en Windows, y la ruta solicitada termina con un nombre de dispositivo especial, el archivo se abrirá con éxito, pero la lectura se colgará indefinidamente. Este problema ha sido solucionado en la versión 3.1.6.
