CVE-2023-38695
@simonsmith/cypress-image-snapshothas fix for insecure snapshot file names
Description
### Impact It's possible for a user to pass a relative file path for the snapshot name and reach outside of the project directory into the machine running the test. Example: ```js cy.get('h1').matchImageSnapshot('../../../ignore-relative-dirs') ``` The above will create an `ignore-relative-dirs.png` three levels up ### Patches Fixed in `8.0.2` ### Workarounds Validate all the existing uses of `matchImageSnapshot` to ensure correct use of the filename argument. Example: ```js // snapshot name will be the test title cy.matchImageSnapshot(); // snapshot name will be the name passed in cy.matchImageSnapshot('login'); ``` ### References https://github.com/simonsmith/cypress-image-snapshot/issues/15
