cypress-image-snapshot shows visual regressions in Cypress with jest-image-snapshot. Prior to version 8.0.2, it's possible for a user to pass a relative file path for the snapshot name and reach outside of the project directory into the machine running the test. This issue has been patched in version 8.0.2.

GHSA-vxjg-hchx-cc4g — @simonsmith/cypress-image-snapshothas fix for insecure snapshot file names

Affected: npm: @simonsmith/cypress-image-snapshot

### Impact It's possible for a user to pass a relative file path for the snapshot name and reach outside of the project directory into the machine running the test. Example:

```js cy.get('h1').matchImageSnapshot('../../../ignore-relative-dirs') ``` The above will create an `ignore-relative-dirs.png` three levels up

### Patches Fixed in `8.0.2`

### Workarounds Validate all the existing uses of `matchImageSnapshot` to ensure correct use of the filename argument. Example:

```js // snapshot name will be the test title cy.matchImageSnapshot();

// snapshot name will be the name passed in cy.matchImageSnapshot('login'); ```
