What problem does this PR solve?
A path traversal bug presents in the re-collect API. We use the ID to build file path for collected data, but if the input
id
is a relative path like./../../../../etc/passwd
it could access those files outside the diag directory.What is changed and how it works?
The ID is a base52 encoded timestamp, so just try to decode it and refuses any input that is not a valid base52 encoded timestamp.
