Arbitrary file write in Language Servers for AWS

Collected exploitation and prediction evidence

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Missing symlink validation in Language Servers for AWS may allow an arbitrary file write outside of the workspace trust boundary. This may occur when a local user opens a workspace with a maliciously crafted symlink that resolves to a file path outside the workspace trust boundary. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 1.69.0 or higher.

## Summary Language Servers for AWS (the aws/language-servers project) provides the Language Server Protocol implementations that power AWS developer tooling, including the Amazon Q Developer agentic chat experience, across IDEs such as VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, and Eclipse. Missing symlink validation in Language Servers for AWS may allow an arbitrary file write outside of the workspace trust boundary. This may occur when a local user opens a workspace containing a maliciously crafted symlink that resolves to a file path outside the workspace trust boundary. ## Impact If a user opens a maliciously crafted workspace containing a symlink that resides within the workspace but resolves to a location outside the workspace trust boundary, the agent may follow that symlink and write to the external location without prompting the user for approval. This can result in the modification of files outside the intended workspace boundary. This issue is triggered when a user opens a workspace, trusts it, and the agent subsequently writes to a path within that workspace. Impacted versions: Language Servers for AWS version <1.69.0. ## Patches This issue has been addressed in AWS Language Servers version 1.69.0. We recommend upgrading to the latest version and ensuring any forked or derivative code is patched to incorporate the new fixes. ## Workarounds No workarounds are available. ## References If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, AWS Security ask that you contact them via their [vulnerability reporting page](https://aws.amazon.com/security/vulnerability-reporting) or directly via email to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]). Please do not create a public GitHub issue. ## Acknowledgement AWS Security would like to thank Wiz and Maor Dokhanian for collaborating on this issue through the coordinated vulnerability disclosure process.
