A file path is built from an archive entry name while extracting. Entries named ../../somewhere are written outside the target directory (zip slip).
Category: SECURITY · Engine rule severity: WARNING
How to fix it
Resolve every entry path with path.resolve(dest, entryName) and skip entries whose result does not start with dest + path.sep; also skip absolute paths and symlink entries.
