CVE-2023-34460: Tauri vulnerable to Regression on Filesystem Scope Checks for Dotfiles

CriticalCVSS 9.8 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 39/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.64% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 51.4% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: tauri (crates.io) 1.4.1.
  • Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 4.8, NVD 9.8.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to tauri (crates.io) 1.4.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Tauri is a framework for building binaries for all major desktop platforms. The 1.4.0 release includes a regression on the Filesystem scope check for dotfiles on Unix. Previously dotfiles were not implicitly allowed by the glob wildcard scopes (eg. `$HOME/*`), but a regression was introduced when a configuration option for this behavior was implemented. Only Tauri applications using wildcard scopes in the `fs` endpoint are affected. The regression has been patched on version 1.4.1.
