### Summary The content of files outside `server.fs` setting can be returned to the browser if the project imports a file path concatenated with the `root`. For example, if the project references `/etc/hosts`, the content of `/etc/hosts` was possible to be returned. The content of files outside the `server.fs.allow` option can be returned to the browser when a project imports a file whose root-relative path matches an absolute path on the host. For example, referencing `/etc/hosts` could make Vite return the host's `/etc/hosts` file. ### Impact Only apps that meet all of the following conditions are affected: - explicitly expose the Vite dev server to the network (using `--host` or the `server.host` option) - contain an imported file whose root-relative browser URL is also the absolute path of a readable file on the host - The sensitive file is not matched by `server.fs.deny` - the dev server is not running on Windows ### Details When Vite analyzes an in-root import, it rewrites the resolved module ID to a browser URL such as `/et

A fixed release is not deployment evidence.

Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
