  "details" : "### Summary\n\nThe contents of files that are specified by [`server.fs.deny`](https://vite.dev/config/server-options#server-fs-deny) can be returned to the browser on Windows.\n\n### Impact\n\nOnly apps that match the following conditions are affected:\n\n- explicitly exposes the Vite dev server to the network (using `--host` or [`server.host` config option](https://vitejs.dev/config/server-options.html#server-host))\n- the sensitive file exists in the allowed directories specified by [`server.fs.allow`](https://vite.dev/config/server-options#server-fs-allow)\n- either of:\n  - the sensitive file exists in an NTFS volume\n  - the dev server is running on Windows and the sensitive file exists in a volume that 8.3 short name generation is enabled (it is enabled by default on system volumes)\n\n### Details\n\nVite’s dev server denies direct access to sensitive files through `server.fs.deny`, including entries such as `.env`, `.env.*`, and `*.{crt,pem}`. However, on Windows, the deny logic does not correctly normalize NTFS ADS path forms before access checks are applied.\nBecause of this, requests such as `/.env::$DATA?raw` are treated as allowed paths, while Windows resolves them to the original file's default data stream.\n\nSimilar to that, Windows allows accessing a file using a different name with the 8.3 short name compatibility feature. Vite did not reject accessing files via them.\n\n### PoC\n```bash\n$ npm create vite@latest\n$ cd vite-project/\n$ npm install\n$ npm run dev\n```\nAccess via browser at `http://localhost:5173/.env::$DATA?raw`\n<img width=\"388\" height=\"129\" alt=\"deecc1315123883cfd0f9c26a002845a\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/895c6012-4e2e-4a35-babb-69bbf3ee7170\" />\n\nExample expected result:\n- `/.env::$DATA?raw` returns the contents of `.env`\n- `/tls.pem::$DATA?raw` returns the contents of `tls.pem`",
