[GO-2023-1568] Path traversal on Windows in path/filepath

Severity High

Affected Packages 2

Fixed Packages 2

CVEs 1

A path traversal vulnerability exists in filepath.Clean on Windows.

On Windows, the filepath.Clean function could transform an invalid path such as
"a/../c:/b" into the valid path "c:\b". This transformation of a relative (if
invalid) path into an absolute path could enable a directory traversal attack.

After fix, the filepath.Clean function transforms this path into the relative
(but still invalid) path ".\c:\b".
