A non-sanitized source file path is used as the target file path in one of these parameters:
destinationFileName
of method ZipFileExtensions.ExtractToFilepath
of method File.Openpath
of method File.OpenWritepath
of method File.Createpath
of constructor for FileStreamfileName
of constructor for FileInfoBy default, this rule analyzes the entire codebase, but this is configurable.
Rule descriptionFile path can be relative and can lead to file system access outside of the expected file system target path, leading to malicious config changes and remote code execution via lay-and-wait technique.
How to fix violationsDo not use the source file path to construct the target file path, or make sure that the last character on the extraction path is the directory separator character.
When to suppress warningsYou can suppress this warning if the source path always comes from a trusted source.
Suppress a warningIf you just want to suppress a single violation, add preprocessor directives to your source file to disable and then re-enable the rule.
#pragma warning disable CA5389
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore CA5389
To disable the rule for a file, folder, or project, set its severity to none
in the configuration file.
[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.CA5389.severity = none
For more information, see How to suppress code analysis warnings.
Configure code to analyzeUse the following options to configure which parts of your codebase to run this rule on.
You can configure these options for just this rule, for all rules they apply to, or for all rules in this category (Security) that they apply to. For more information, see Code quality rule configuration options.
Exclude specific symbolsYou can exclude specific symbols, such as types and methods, from analysis by setting the excluded_symbol_names option. For example, to specify that the rule should not run on any code within types named MyType
, add the following key-value pair to an .editorconfig file in your project:
dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType
Note
Replace the XXXX
part of CAXXXX
with the ID of the applicable rule.
Allowed symbol name formats in the option value (separated by |
):
M:
for methods, T:
for types, and N:
for namespaces..ctor
for constructors and .cctor
for static constructors.Examples:
Option Value Summarydotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType
Matches all symbols named MyType
. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = MyType1|MyType2
Matches all symbols named either MyType1
or MyType2
. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = M:NS.MyType.MyMethod(ParamType)
Matches specific method MyMethod
with the specified fully qualified signature. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_symbol_names = M:NS1.MyType1.MyMethod1(ParamType)|M:NS2.MyType2.MyMethod2(ParamType)
Matches specific methods MyMethod1
and MyMethod2
with the respective fully qualified signatures. Exclude specific types and their derived types
You can exclude specific types and their derived types from analysis by setting the excluded_type_names_with_derived_types option. For example, to specify that the rule should not run on any methods within types named MyType
and their derived types, add the following key-value pair to an .editorconfig file in your project:
dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType
Note
Replace the XXXX
part of CAXXXX
with the ID of the applicable rule.
Allowed symbol name formats in the option value (separated by |
):
T:
prefix.Examples:
Option value Summarydotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType
Matches all types named MyType
and all of their derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = MyType1|MyType2
Matches all types named either MyType1
or MyType2
and all of their derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = M:NS.MyType
Matches specific type MyType
with given fully qualified name and all of its derived types. dotnet_code_quality.CAXXXX.excluded_type_names_with_derived_types = M:NS1.MyType1|M:NS2.MyType2
Matches specific types MyType1
and MyType2
with the respective fully qualified names, and all of their derived types. Example
The following code snippet illustrates the pattern detected by this rule.
Violation:
using System.IO.Compression;
class TestClass
{
public void TestMethod(ZipArchiveEntry zipArchiveEntry)
{
zipArchiveEntry.ExtractToFile(zipArchiveEntry.FullName);
}
}
Solution:
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.IO.Compression;
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string zipPath = @".\result.zip";
Console.WriteLine("Provide path where to extract the zip file:");
string extractPath = Console.ReadLine();
// Normalizes the path.
extractPath = Path.GetFullPath(extractPath);
// Ensures that the last character on the extraction path
// is the directory separator char.
// Without this, a malicious zip file could try to traverse outside of the expected
// extraction path.
if (!extractPath.EndsWith(Path.DirectorySeparatorChar.ToString(), StringComparison.Ordinal))
extractPath += Path.DirectorySeparatorChar;
using (ZipArchive archive = ZipFile.OpenRead(zipPath))
{
foreach (ZipArchiveEntry entry in archive.Entries)
{
if (entry.FullName.EndsWith(".txt", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
{
// Gets the full path to ensure that relative segments are removed.
string destinationPath = Path.GetFullPath(Path.Combine(extractPath, entry.FullName));
// Ordinal match is safest, case-sensitive volumes can be mounted within volumes that
// are case-insensitive.
if (destinationPath.StartsWith(extractPath, StringComparison.Ordinal))
entry.ExtractToFile(destinationPath);
}
}
}
}
}
