HIGH 7.5REMOTEUPGRADE

CVE-2026-35525 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) affecting liquidjs. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

LiquidJS is a Shopify / GitHub Pages compatible template engine in pure JavaScript. Prior to 10.25.3, for {% include %}, {% render %}, and {% layout %}, LiquidJS checks whether the candidate path is inside the configured partials or layouts roots before reading it. That check is path-based, not realpath-based. Because of that, a file like partials/link.liquid passes the directory containment check as long as its pathname is under the allowed root
