What is a path traversal vulnerability?

Path traversal, or directory traversal, is a security flaw that allows an attacker to read or write files on the server outside of the intended application directory by using special characters like '../'.

Can I use this for automated security reviews?

Absolutely. It is designed to be triggered during development or audit phases to catch security fundamentals issues before they reach production.

How does the Path Traversal Finder skill work?

The skill uses Claude's analytical capabilities alongside tools like Grep and Bash to scan your codebase for patterns where user input is unsafely concatenated into file paths.

Does this skill provide code fixes?

Yes, it generates production-ready code snippets and configuration updates to implement proper input validation and path normalization.
