Description Murray McAllister 2014-08-12 02:43:39 UTC
Plack 1.0031 fixes the following security issue:

- Plack::App::File would previously strip trailing slashes off
provided paths. This in combination with the common pattern
of serving files with Plack::Middleware::Static could allow
an attacker to bypass a whitelist of generated files (avar) #446

Upstream fix:

https://github.com/avar/Plack/commit/bc1731dbb53850c380875ad683cd87c8ec99eee3
