Summary
gopass, an open-source command-line password manager, is affected by a path traversal flaw in its filesystem storage backend. A collaborator with write access to a shared, git-synced password store could craft entries that cause another user's recursive delete command to remove arbitrary directories outside the store.

Read the original description
gopass before 1.17.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the filesystem storage backend that allows attackers to delete directories outside the password store via ../ entry names in Prune and IsDir. Collaborators with write access to a shared git-synced store can introduce crafted entries, causing a victim's recursive gopass rm -r to delete arbitrary directory trees.
