🔬 Technical Analysis

#

Summary openhole-server forwarded the URL-decoded request path (r.URL.Path) to tunnel clients instead of the original request-target. Percent-encoded dot-segments (%2e) and separators (%2f) were decoded to ../ and / before reaching the local service. Go's ServeMux rejects literal ../ paths, but percent-encoded traversal sequences bypassed this and were delivered to backends as working path traversal.

Impact An unauthenticated remote attacker could read files outside the published web root on tunneled local services that resolve paths without canonicalization. Example:

/%2e%2e/secret.txt → file outside web root
/%2e%2e/%2e%2e/etc/passwd → sensitive files Encoded slashes (/a%2fb) could also bypass path-based access controls.

Fix v0.1.2 forwards `r.URL.EscapedPa
