  "summary" : "LangSmith SDK TracingMiddleware: Arbitrary server-side file read",
  "details" : "# Summary\n\nAn attacker who can send an HTTP request to a server running the LangSmith SDK's `TracingMiddleware` can cause that server to read an arbitrary file from its local filesystem and upload the contents to LangSmith as a trace attachment. Depending on how the distributed trace system is deployed, triggering a read may not require authentication. Retrieving the contents requires read access to the LangSmith workspace the traces are sent to. The net effect is a trust-boundary crossing: a party with workspace trace-read access (for example a low-privilege workspace member, a contractor, or a compromised teammate account) gains the ability to read files from any server running `TracingMiddleware`, a capability outside that workspace's intended trust boundary.\n\n# Impact\n\nConfidentiality (High): arbitrary read of files accessible to the server process, exposed to anyone with workspace trace-read access.\n\n# Details\n\nTwo defects combine. A field supplied through a tracing-propagation header was merged into the run without validation, allowing injection of run attributes including attachments (CWE-346). A type check intended to gate filesystem access did not match the type of the decoded input, so the guard never engaged (CWE-843). As a result, an attacker-named file is opened by the server and uploaded as a trace attachment by the background tracing thread (CWE-22).\n\n## Who can exploit this\n\n- Anyone reachable by HTTP can trigger the file read. Depending on how the distributed trace system is deployed, triggering may not require authentication.\n- Retrieving the file contents requires read access to the destination LangSmith workspace. The upload uses the server's own configured API key and workspace, which the attacker cannot redirect, so a zero-access outsider cannot retrieve the result; a workspace member, or anyone who has compromised one, can.\n\n# Remediation\n\nUpgrade the Python SDK to `>= 0.8.18`.\n\n# Workarounds\n\nUntil upgrading, do not expose `TracingMiddleware` to untrusted HTTP traffic, and limit workspace trace-read access to trusted members.\n\n# Credits\n\nFirst reported by @Ryu7zz.",
