Résumé

esbuild's development server (versions 0.27.3 up to but not including 0.28.1) allows arbitrary file read on Windows: a crafted request path can escape the served directory and read files elsewhere on disk. It affects the development server only, not production builds, but anyone running `esbuild --serve` on Windows is exposed to any local or networked attacker who can reach the server.

Comment le corriger

• Upgrade `esbuild` to 0.28.1 or later, which fixes the dev-server path handling.
• Until you upgrade, do not expose the esbuild dev server beyond localhost, and run it only behind a trusted network boundary.

Comment l’éviter dans votre code

• Never expose development servers to untrusted networks; bind them to localhost and put them behind a VPN or firewall if remote access is genuinely needed.
• Keep build tooling updated; dev-server file-serving bugs are common and only matter while the server is reachable.
• Treat the development server as untrusted infrastructure, kept separate from anything that holds secrets.
