Akamai CLI before 2.0.6 Path Traversal via cli.json Command Names

Akamai CLI before 2.0.6 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows malicious packages to write files outside the install directory via unvalidated commands[].name values in cli.json. Attackers who convince victims to install or update a package can use '..' segments to overwrite executables on the user's PATH, persisting after uninstall.

Akamai Ghost before 2025-07-21 allows HTTP Request Smuggling via an OPTIONS request that has an entity body, because there can be a subsequent request within the persistent connection between an Akamai proxy server and an origin server, if the origin server violates certain Internet standards.

Akamai Ghost on Akamai CDN edge servers before 2025-11-17 has a chunked request body processing error that can result in HTTP request smuggling. When Akamai Ghost receives an invalid chunked body that includes a chunk size different from the actual size of the following chunk data, under certain circumstances, Akamai Ghost erroneously forwards the invalid request and subsequent superfluous bytes to the origin server. An attacker could hide a smuggled request in these superfluous bytes. Whether this is exploitable depends on the origin server's behavior and how it processes the invalid request it receives from Akamai Ghost.
