Security anti-pattern for path traversal vulnerabilities (CWE-22). Use when generating or reviewing code that handles file paths, reads or writes files based on user input, or serves static content. Detects joining user input to paths without proper sanitization or validation.

Attackers read or write files outside intended directories by manipulating user input in file paths. Using sequences like ../ without validation allows navigation up directory trees to access /etc/passwd, source code, or credentials.
The anti-pattern is concatenating user input into file paths without validating for directory traversal characters.
