CVE-2026-104994
NVD: Trivy before 0.71.0 allows directory traversal in Terraform filesystem functions when they try to access pathnames above the scan root. NVD: The risk occurs when using misconf scanning on untrusted input (e.g., upon a third-party pull request that contains a Terraform configuration), if sensitive data can be found at those unintended pathnames, and an adversary can then view a sensitive data value... OSV: Trivy before 0.71.0 allows directory traversal in Terraform filesystem functions when they try to access pathnames above the scan root.
