Affected: vitejs vite

Vite is a frontend tooling framework for javascript. The Vite dev server option `server.fs.deny` can be bypassed on case-insensitive file systems using case-augmented versions of filenames. Notably this affects servers hosted on Windows. This bypass is similar to CVE-2023-34092 -- with surface area reduced to hosts having case-insensitive filesystems. Since `picomatch` defaults to case-sensitive glob matching, but the file server doesn't discriminate; a blacklist bypass is possible. By requesting raw filesystem paths using augmented casing, the matcher derived from `config.server.fs.deny` fails to block access to sensitive files. This issue has been addressed in vite@5.0.12, vite@4.5.2, vite@3.2.8, and vite@2.9.17. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should restrict access to dev servers.

Affected: npm: vite

### Summary [Vite dev server option](https://vitejs.dev/config/server-options.html#server-fs-deny) `server.fs.deny` can be bypassed on case-insensitive file systems using case-augmented versions of filenames. Notably this affects servers hosted on Windows.

This bypass is similar to https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-34092 -- with surface area reduced to hosts having case-insensitive filesystems.

### Patches Fixed in vite@5.0.12, vite@4.5.2, vite@3.2.8, vite@2.9.17

### Details Since `picomatch` defaults to case-sensitive glob matching, but the file server doesn't discriminate; a blacklist bypass is possible.

See `picomatch` usage, where `nocase` is defaulted to `false`: https://github.com/vitejs/vite/blob/v5.1.0-beta.1/packages/vite/src/node/server/index.ts#L632

By requesting raw filesystem paths using augmented casing, the matcher derived from `config.server.fs.deny` fails to block access to sensitive files.

### PoC **Setup** 1. Created vanilla Vite project using `npm create vite@latest` on a Standard Azure hosted Windows 10 instance. - `npm run dev -- --host 0.0.0.0` - Publicly accessible for the time being here: http://20.12.242.81:5173/ 2. Created dummy secret files, e.g. `custom.secret` and `production.pem` 3. Populated `vite.config.js` with ```javascript export default { server: { fs: { deny: ['.env', '.env.*', '*.{crt,pem}', 'custom.secret'] } } } ```

**Reproduction** 1. `curl -s http://20.12.242.81:5173/@fs//` - Descriptive error page re…
