Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in Eclipse Vert.x versions 4.0.0 to 4.5.21 and 5.0.0 to 5.0.4, where the StaticHandler's configuration intended to restrict access to hidden files does not properly restrict access to hidden directories. As a result, unauthorized users can access files within these hidden directories, such as '.git/config'. [1]
