CVE-2020-25032: An issue was discovered in Flask-CORS (aka CORS Middleware for Flask) before 3.0.9.

An issue was discovered in Flask-CORS (aka CORS Middleware for Flask) before 3.0.9. It allows ../ directory traversal to access private resources because resource matching does not ensure that pathnames are in a canonical format.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Flask-CORS versions before 3.0.9 could mis-handle non-canonical paths, potentially letting a requester reach resources that were intended to remain private. Business urgency depends on whether affected Flask applications expose private API paths and rely on Flask-CORS resource matching for access separation. Exposure is most likely in Python Flask applications using Flask-CORS before 3.0.9, especially where resource patterns distinguish public and private paths. Distro-packaged Flask-CORS may also be relevant, as Debian and openSUSE advisories are cited. Prioritize remediation for internet-facing Flask services or APIs handling private data. Where Flask-CORS is unused or already at a fixed vendor version, urgency is lower. Treat unknown inventory as the main immediate risk. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Flask-CORS to 3.0.9 or a vendor-fixed package version.; Review Debian and openSUSE advisories if using distro-managed packages.; Check vendor guidance for supported backports and package naming differences..
