  "title": "Notepad\u002B\u002B: Path Traversal (Zip Slip) in WinGup Plugin Extraction",
  "description": "Notepad\u002B\u002B is a free and open-source source code editor. Prior to 8.9.7, the WinGup decompress function joins untrusted ZIP entry names to unzipDestTo without canonical containment validation, allowing an entry such as ../mimeTools/mimeTools.dll to overwrite a DLL in a sibling plugin directory and execute attacker-controlled code when Notepad\u002B\u002B next loads that plugin. This issue is fixed in version 8.9.7.",
