=== How does this work?
include::../../common/fix/how-does-this-work.adoc[]
=== Pitfalls
include::../../common/pitfalls/partial-path-traversal.adoc[]
For example, the following code is vulnerable to partial path injection. Note
that the string `targetDirectory` does not end with a path separator:
[source, java]
----
static private String targetDirectory = "/Users/John";
public void ExtractEntry(ZipFile zipFile) throws IOException {
Enumeration<? extends ZipEntry> entries = zipFile.entries();
ZipEntry entry = entries.nextElement();
InputStream inputStream = zipFile.getInputStream(entry);
File file = new File(entry.getName());
String canonicalDestinationPath = file.getCanonicalPath();
if (canonicalDestinationPath.startsWith(targetDirectory)) {
Files.copy(inputStream, file.toPath(), StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING, LinkOption.NOFOLLOW_LINKS);
}
}
----
This check can be bypassed because `"/Users/Johnny".startsWith("/Users/John")`
returns `true`. Thus, for validation, `"/Users/John"` should actually be
`"/Users/John/"`.
**Warning**: Some functions, such as `.getCanonicalPath`, remove the
terminating path separator in their return value. +
The validation code should be tested to ensure that it cannot be impacted by this
issue.
