Problem
aztec-up uninstallpasses user input directly into anrm -rfpath without validating the format:rm -rf "$AZTEC_HOME/versions/$version"The existing
is_version_installedguard checks[ -d "$AZTEC_HOME/versions/$version" ], but this passes for path-traversal inputs like../because$AZTEC_HOME/versions/../resolves to$AZTEC_HOME/which is a valid directory.This means
aztec-up uninstall ../executesrm -rf "$AZTEC_HOME/", deleting the entire Aztec home directory including all installed versions, thecurrentsymlink, and shared binaries likeaztec-upitself.Fix
Added a semver validation check using the existing
is_semverfunction before therm -rfis reached. Since installed version directories are always named with concrete semver strings (aliases likenightlyare resolved to semver at install time), this rejects any input that isn't a valid version -- including path traversal attempts, typos, and other malformed strings.The check is placed after
is_version_installedso that the more user-friendly "not installed" message is shown first for valid-looking versions that simply aren't present.Fixes F-484
